Comments on "Evaluation of the mean error-free interval of a noisy data channel"
H.M. de Lima, Otto Carlos M. B. Duarte · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1996
This letter corrects a few results reported in the paper by Georganas et al. (see ibid., vol.26, p.185-7, 1978). It shows that, for very long data strings, the mean error-free interval (MEFI) as a function of the packet error rate P is not discontinuous. In addition, the corrected results are extended to point-to-multipoint environment.
