Statistical MIMO beam codebook design for mmWave transmissions

Abstract We propose a novel method for constructing beam codebooks, i.e., a set of beamforming weights, to be used for beam sweeping and data transmission in mmWave massive MIMO channels. The proposed beam codebooks are designed according to the statistical distribution of the channel’s angles of de...
