# Multiple Cell Upset Partitioning for Simulation of Soft Error Rates in Space Systems with Error Correcting Codes

## TL;DR

This paper introduces a self-consistent method for calculating soft error rates in space systems, considering error correcting codes and partitioning multiple cell events to improve accuracy.

## Contribution

It presents a novel partitioning approach for multiple cell events in soft error rate simulations, validated with ground and on-orbit data.

## Key findings

- Partitioning method accurately predicts soft error rates.
- Validated against real space environment data.
- Enhances simulation precision for space system reliability.

## Abstract

A self-consistent procedure for the ion-induced soft error rate calculation in space environment taking into account Error Correcting Codes is proposed. The method is based on the partitioning of the multiple cell events into groups with different multiplicities. The proposed partitioning method has been vali-dated for the ground and on-orbit literature data.
