US Patent 12126395 Method and apparatus for generating equivalent nonlinear noise

The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus for generating equivalent nonlinear noise. The method includes randomly generating white noise obeying zero-mean Chi-square distribution; and filtering the input white noise by using an equivalent nonlinear noise spectrum as an equivalent nonlinear filter to obtain the equivalent nonlinear noise. According to the embodiments of the present application, equivalent nonlinear noise may be generated based on zero-mean Chi-square distribution random variables combined with equivalent nonlinear noise spectrum filtering, and more accurate equivalent nonlinear noise than the related art may be generated, thus accurately evaluating an influence of nonlinearity of devices on Bit Error Rate (BER).
