Digitally Modulated Carrier CNR vs. BER<br />

<strong>256</strong>-<strong>QAM</strong> requires 6~7 dB better CNR to<br />

achieve the same bit error rate as 64-<br />

<strong>QAM</strong>!!!<br />

Many cable operators transmit 64-<strong>QAM</strong><br />

digitally modulated carriers at -10 dBc<br />

relative to analog TV channels, and increase<br />

the amplitude of <strong>256</strong>-<strong>QAM</strong> digitally<br />

modulated carriers to -5 to -6 dBc.<br />

<strong>256</strong>-<strong>QAM</strong><br />
