I can't understand how the lower limit for the integral changes in the calculation of Bit Error Rate. I have attached a figure, please have a look and tell me if you have an answer I can't understand how the lower limit changes from (a1+a2)/2 to (a1-a2)/2sigma Thanks

Replace u = (z-a2)/σ0 and change the lower limit of integration to (old limit - a2)/σ0
