  • Abstract
    A substantial portion of the findings of J.T. Gillis (ibid., vol.27, no.6, p.906-910, Nov. 1991) were reported in the open literature nearly 45 years ago, using far simple methods. An expression for the circular error probability (CEP) which takes into account the correlation between two jointly Gaussian random variables (an aspect overlooked by Gillis) is derived and numerical results are presented. For all practical purposes, it is found that the influence of the correlation coefficient on the CEP is not particularly strong
