Comments on “Cutset Bounds on the Capacity of MIMO Relay Channels”

We comment on the paper “Cutset Bounds on the Capacity of MIMO Relay Channels”by Jeong et al. and point out that, unlike what appears from a remark and some other contents by these authors, the matrix distribution for the sum of two complex random Wishart matrices has already b...
