Abstract :
In the above titled paper (ibid., vol. 44, no. 1, pp. 211-216), there is a typographical error in the decoding complexity expression for the binary coded (reference) perpendicular magnetic recording channel (PMRC). The correct expression is presented here, along with additional comments.
