Abstract
Conventional MIMO systems typically use full digital processing for optimal performance while it requires an independent radio frequency (RF) chain for each antenna, which is not feasible for large-scale antenna arrays due to the high cost, high-power consumption and high complexity of RF chain components in high frequencies. Fortunately, in recent years, the Hybrid beamforming has been proposed as an efficient and auspicious technique for the practical implementation of millimeter-Wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems. In this paper we propose a novel HBF (Hybrid beamforming) algorithm and simulate the sum rate of the proposed approach, then compare it with other algorithms in the sum rates. Specifically, the HBF algorithm as well as the maximizing minimum phase difference algorithm are based on the MMSE (Minimum Mean Square Error). For the full-digital beamforming and the beam steering, the ZF (zero forcing) criterion is employed. Simulations demonstrate that the performance of the proposed algorithm is similar to the full digital algorithm, and its robustness is confirmed by comparisons with other existing algorithms under the same channel model.
