This paper investigates the joint design of hybrid transmit precoder and analog receive combiners for single-group multicasting in millimeter-wave systems. We propose LB-GDM, a low-complexity learning-based approach that leverages gradient descent with momentum and alternating optimization to design (i) the digital and analog constituents of a hybrid transmitter and (ii) the analog combiners of each receiver. In addition, we also extend our proposed approach to design fully-digital precoders. We show through numerical evaluation that, implementing LB-GDM in either hybrid or digital precoders attain superlative performance compared to competing designs based on semidefinite relaxation. Specifically, in terms of minimum signal-to-noise ratio, we report a remarkable improvement with gains of up to 105% and 101% for the fully-digital and hybrid precoders, respectively.
Multicast beamforming is known to improve spectral efficiency. However, its benefits and challenges for hybrid precoders design in millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems remain understudied. To this end, this paper investigates the first joint design of hybrid transmit precoders (with an arbitrary number of finite-resolution phase shifts) and receive combiners for mmWave multi-group multicasting. Our proposed design leverages semidefinite relaxation (SDR), alternating optimization and Cholesky matrix factorization to sequentially optimize the digital/analog precoders at the transmitter and the combi…
We consider multi-group multicast precoding designs for cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. To optimize the transmit and receive beamforming strategies, we focus on minimizing the sum of the maximum mean squared errors (MSEs) over the multicast groups, which is then approximated with the sum MSE to simplify the computation and signaling. We adopt an iterative bi-directional training scheme with uplink and downlink precoded pilots to cooperatively design the multi-group multicast precoders at each base station and the combiners at each user equipment in a distribute…
Power consumption of multi-user (MU) precoding is a major concern in all-digital massive MU multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) base-stations with hundreds of antenna elements operating at millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies.

To ensure this requirement, we jointly optimize the hybrid precoder, analog combiners, power allocation, and fai…

To maximally enhance the energy efficiency (EE) of hybrid precoding under this structure, the joint optimization of switch-controlled connections and the hybrid precoders is formulated as a large-scale mixed-integer non-convex problem with high-dimensional power constraints. To efficiently solve such a challenging problem, we first decouple it into…
Hybrid analog/digital precoding in millimeter-wave (mmWave) multi-input multi-ouput (MIMO) systems is capable of achieving the near-optimal full-digital performance at reduced hardware cost and power consumption compared to its full-RF digital counterpart. However, having numerous phase shifters is still costly, especially when the phase shifters are of high resolution. In this paper, we propose a novel twin-resolution phase-shifter network for mmWave MIMO systems, which reduces the power consumption of an entirely high-resolution network, whilst mitigating the severe array gain reduction of a…

There is a common message destined to all users and a private multicast message for each cluster. We study the weighted sum rate (WSR) maximization problem for two different schemes: (i) the base station transmits the superposition of common and multicast messages, (ii) the base station concatenates the multicast message vector with the common message. We also formulate a second problem, weighted minimum mean square error (WMM…

Configuring hybrid precoders and combiners is a major challenge to deploy practical mmWave communication systems. Prior work addresses the problem of designing hybrid precoders and combiner, yet focusing on finding solutions under a total transmit power constraint. The design of hybrid precoders and combiners in practical system, is constrained, however, by a per antenna transmit power, since each antenna element in the array is connected to a power amplifier (PA) that has to operate within its linear region. In this paper, we focus on the problem of hybrid precoding and combining with per-ant…
Aiming at maximizing the achievable sum-rate of wideband multiuser mmWave massive MIMO systems, the hybrid precoding is studied. Since each computation of the achievable sum-rate can be performed only after the analog precoder and digital precoder are both determined, the maximization of the achievable sum-rate has intractable computational complexity. By introducing the interference free (IF) achievable sum-rate, the design of the analog and digital precoders can be decoupled. To avoid the beam conflict and maximize the IF achievable sum-rate, a Hungarian-based codeword selection algorithm is…

A major source of difficulty when operating with large arrays at mmWave frequencies is to estimate the wideband channel, since the use of hybrid architectures acts as a compression stage for the received signal. Moreover, the channel has to be tracked and the antenna arrays regularly reconfigured to obtain appropriate beamforming gains when a mobile setting is considered. In this paper, we focus on the problem of channel tracking for frequency-selective mmWave channels, and propose two novel channel tracking algorithms that leverage prior statistical information on the angles-of-arrival and an…

Our work presents three main contributions: First, we present a sufficient condition and a necessary condition for hybrid precoding schemes to realize unconstrained optimal precoders exactly when the number of data streams Ns satisfies Ns = minfrank(H);Nrfg, where H rep…
We consider the problem of ESPRIT-oriented precoder design for beamspace angle-of-departure (AoD) estimation in downlink mmWave multiple-input single-output communications. Standard precoders (i.e., directional/sum beams) yield poor performance in AoD estimation, while Cramer-Rao bound-optimized precoders undermine the so-called shift invariance property (SIP) of ESPRIT. To tackle this issue, the problem of designing ESPRIT-oriented precoders is formulated to jointly optimize over the precoding matrix and the SIP-restoring matrix of ESPRIT. We develop an alternating optimization approach that …
