Abstract :
We show that there exists a compatibility problem in the derivation of the mean and covariance of the converted measurement errors in L. Mo et al. (ibid., vol.34, no.3, p.1023-7, 1998), and then present a modification to the computation of them, in which both the mean and the covariance are computed strictly conditioned on the measurements.
