Abstract
A general expression for Mason´s gain U is derived and expressed in the linear two-port h parameters of a network. In a recent paper by S. Prasad et al. (ibid., vol.35, no.12, 1988, p.2288-94) an incorrect expression for U is presented. The commenter shows that the two expressions are equal at only one frequency, f/sub max/, i.e. when U is solved for U=1.<>
