Abstract
For the optimality of the separation architecture, we consider the problem of determining the capacity region of the multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian broadcast channel. Our main result is a new extremal inequality as the underpinning mathematical structure for the MIMO Gaussian broadcast channel problem. In one special case, this inequality yields a generalization of the classical vector entropy-power inequality (EPI). In another special case, this inequality sheds insight into the problem of maximizing the differential entropy of the sum of two jointly distributed random variables.
