    The Holevo–Schumacher–Westermoreland (HSW) channel capacity for the diagonal unital qudit channels is considered. In Phys. Rev.A69, 022302, the HSW channel capacity for the diagonal unital qudit channels Φ is given as χ(Φ)=1-minρH(Φ(ρ)), where minimization is over the input states of the channel. In this paper, using the concavity of von Neumann entropy, we show that using only pure states we can work out its HSW channel capacity. Hence, our result simplifies the computation.
