    \textit{M. S. Floater} [Comput. Aided Geom. Des. 9, 161--174 (1992; Zbl 0760.65013)] has obtained bounds for the first derivative of a rational Bezier curve in terms of ratio of bounds of the weights. In the present paper the author solves the problem of reparameterizing a rational curve by a Möbius transformation such that the maximal ratio of weights in the reparameterized representation is minimized.
