What Does Block Error Rate (BLER) Mean?

Block error rate (BLER) is a quantitative measure of how well audio is retained in a compact disc (CD) over a period of time. It is used to measure the error rate at the time of extracting data frames from a CD. The BLER is the ratio of total erroneous blocks to that of total number of blocks received in a digital circuit.

Techopedia Explains Block Error Rate (BLER)

According to the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), “A Block Error Ratio is defined as the ratio of the number of erroneous blocks received to the total number of blocks sent. An erroneous block is defined as a Transport Block, the cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of which is wrong.”
