There is provided a jitter amplifier circuit for amplifying jitter included in an input signal. The jitter amplifier circuit includes a distorting circuit that receives the input signal, and distorts a waveform of the input signal so as to generate a harmonic component of the input signal, and a filter that passes, out of the distorted signal output from the distorting circuit, a harmonic component of a certain order which is determined in accordance with an amplification ratio of amplifying the jitter.

A calculating apparatus that calculates a characteristic of a target signal, including an input section that receives a bit error or a sampling timing, and a calculating section that calculates sampling timings over a range in which the bit error rate is less than a designated value or a bit error rate at a designated sampling timing, by using a relational expression between the sampling timing and the bit error rate. A transmission model for transmitting a signal having jitter includes a random component and a deterministic component having a prescribed probability density distribution. The relational expression is achieved by substituting, as parameters, a standard deviation of a random component and a peak-to-peak value of a deterministic component in a jitter of the target signal.
