bit error rate and symbol error rate

can anyone tell me how do we compute bit error rate and symbol error rate for a multidimensional array ?

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

Reshape as a vector and apply the calculations to the vector. Bit error rate and symbol error rate are statistical summaries that use all of the information in the matrix in a way that is independent of order (beyond preserving whatever order is needed to convert between bits and symbols)
