In this paper, we investigate the behavior of bipartite entanglement of fermionic systems when one of the parties is traveling with a uniform acceleration. For the ordering problem in fermionic systems, we apply the recent result of Montero and Martín-Martínez [Phys. Rev. A 83, 052306 (2011)]. Based on the approach, we consider both pure and mixed entangled states, and we show that the behavior in terms of the entanglement measure (negativity) allows one to obtain physical results, i.e., its convergence in the infinite acceleration. The behavior shows that the ordering employed is relevant to derive physical results for fermionic entanglement. This also corrects the previous analysis of Martín-Martínez and Fuentes.
