The present work investigates the measurement of the mean-square error of linear systems and the power in a random waveform using digital simulation. A postprocessor is described which yields all necessary information for determining input signal power, output power, average system gain, average system time delay, and system mean-square error. It is shown that a minimum of 10,000 data points must be processed if 4% accuracy with 98% confidence is required for the determination of the power in a random waveform.
