Abstract

In the search for enhanced wireless communication systems, multibeam phased array receivers have gained prominence. They promise to significantly boost data rates, reduce latency, and improve reliability. However, implementing multibeam receivers with traditional beamforming techniques can be challenging due to the high computational demands and the need for multiple radio frequency (RF) chains. Hybrid beamforming combines the advantages of digital and analog beamforming to strike a balance between performance and complexity. Our research delves into the following aspects of Hybrid beamforming for multibeam phased array receivers: Reduced Hardware Complexity: By blending digital and analog beamforming, we reduce the number of required RF chains, making multibeam receivers more cost-effective. Enhanced Beam Steering: Hybrid beamforming maintains precise control over multiple beams, ensuring efficient signal reception and transmission. Real-World Applications: We discuss practical applications in 5G and beyond, satellite communications, and radar systems. The paper delves into the fundamental concepts of analog and digital beamforming, illustrating their respective strengths and limitations. It then presents the architecture of hybrid beamforming systems, emphasizing the synergistic integration of analog and digital components. Special attention is given to the design considerations of beamforming networks, antenna arrays, and the beam steering mechanism.
