Residual bit error rate
The Residual bit error rate (RBER) is a receive quality metric in digital transmission, one of several used to quantify the accuracy of the received data.[1]
In digital transmission schemes, including cellular telephony systems such as GSM, a certain percentage of received data will be detected as containing errors, and will be discarded. The likelihood that a particular bit will be detected as erroneous is the Bit error rate.
The RBER characterizes the likelihood that a given bit will be erroneous but will not be detected as such[2]
