contents A clock skew compensation algorithm was recently proposed based on the extension of Bresenham's line drawing algorithm (Kim and Kang, IEEE Commun. Lett., vol. 26, no. 4, pp. 902--906, Apr. 2022), which takes into account the discrete nature of clocks in digital communication systems and mitigates the effect of limited floating-point precision on clock skew compensation. It lacks, however, a theoretical analysis of the range of the initial value of skew-compensated clock, which is also an initial condition for the proposed algorithm. In this letter, we provide practical as well as theoretical bounds on the initial value of skew-compensated clock based on a systematic analysis of the errors of floating-point operations, which replace the approximate bounds in Theorem 1 of the prior work.
