Re: [10GBT] Updated Tables
Vivek,
I disagree. The 1E-12 BER point for the PAM8 proposal is at 19.9dB and it
should stay that way.
The proposed PAM12 approach is fundamentally flawed in its use of SNR vs.
BER. If you compute the formula,
Fs = 10000/(4*log2(4N) -2)
for N=3, you will find that PAM12 should be running at 810MHz instead of the
supposedly "optimized" 825MHz. If you plug in N=2 in the above formula, you
will find that Fs is 1000MHz, which is as it is proposed for the PAM8
approach.
Please don't compensate the SNR for our PAM8 proposal for the inadequacies
of the supposedly "optimized" encoding schemes used in the PAM12 proposal.
Please don't even think about it.
Regards,
Sailesh Rao.
