An Iterative Soft Bit Error Rate Estimation of Any Digital Communication Systems Using a Nonparametric Probability Density Function

In general, performance of communication system receivers cannot be calculated analytically. The bit error rate (BER) is thus computed using the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation (Bit Error Counting). It is shown that if we wish to have reliable results with good precision, the total number of transmitted...
