  • Abstract
    In the above-titled paper by M. Georgiopoulos (see ibid., vol.36, no.6, p.720-3, 1988), the packet error probability induced in a frequency-hopped spread-spectrum packet radio network is computed by using the Markovian property of the byte errors at the receiver. It is shown here that the byte errors at the receiver do not exhibit a Markovian structure. A correct analysis and numerical results are provided.<>
