MTM400 MPEG Transport Stream Monitor User Manual 3-113
EVM (%) (Error Vector Magnitude) Closely related to, and can normally
be calculated from, MER. It is a ratio of 'errored signal vectors'
to maximum signal amplitude expressed as a percentage
(ref: TR 101 290 Annex).
BER (Bit Error Rate) Provides an indication of the Forward Error
Correction workload.
TEFs (Transport Error Flag or TEI transport error indicator) Indicates
the Forward Error Correction failure.
