We present a hardware Gaussian noise generator based on the Box-Muller method that provides highly accurate noise samples. The noise generator can be used as a key component in a hardware-based simulation system, such as for exploring channel code behavior at very low bit error rates, as low as 10-12 to 10-13. The main novelties of this work are accurate analytical error analysis and bit-width optimization...
