Hi,
I want to calculate the BER when the number of received bits is less than the number of transmitted bits. For equal number of transmitted and received bits, I can just compare bit by bit and then calculate the BER. The problem is when I miss some bits, then how do I calculate BER.
For example if my transmitted and demodulated received sequences are
1 0 1 0 1 0 (transmitted: 6 bits)
1 0 _ 0 1 0 (received: 5 bits)
Now if I match it bit by bit, then only the first 2 bits match so my BER will be "2/6 * 100", but there is actually one missed bit, so should my BER not be "5/6 * 100"?
Or is there better approach?
Thanks
