  • Abstract
    The authors demonstrate that contrary to the claim made in the above named work (ibid., vol.36, Jun., p.720-3, 1988), the sequence of hits in an asynchronous frequency hop multiple-access system is not a Markov process. Comments of the use of a model in which the hits are independent are also given.<>
