Below these 50% points, the relationship between the BER and the counter
event count (averaged over many one second samples) is essentially linear.
Above the 50% point, the relationship between BER and the average counter
event count is highly non-linear due to the likelihood of counter saturation. The
following figures show this relationship for various counters and framing formats.
These graphs can be used to determine the BER, given the average event
count. In general, if the BER is above 10
cannot be used to determine the BER without considering the statistical effect of
occasional counter saturation.
Figure 13 illustrates the expected count values for a range of Bit Error Ratios in
E1 mode.
