Abstract

An embedded method for analyzing RF channel communication link parameters can include inserting data having a predetermined pattern to a transmission at a transmitter, processing the data through a waveform processor, transmitting the data across a communications link at traffic rates, receiving the transmitted data at a receiver, and determining a RF channel bit error rate of the transmitted data at the receiver. The transmitted data can include embedded synchronization and operating mode patterns such that the receiver can distinguish the transmitted data from contemporaneous voice or other data transmissions. A method for tracking received bits and counting received errors can include providing received bits to a decryption process, and providing test bits to an error analysis application to determine a total number of received errors.
