Rate-Loss Mitigation for a Millimeter-Wave Beamspace MIMO Lens Antenna Array System Using a Hybrid Beam-Selection Scheme

The rate loss is an important issue for multi-user beamspace multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) millimeter-wave systems. In such systems, multi-cluster channel propagation leads as a function of the quantization error and, as a result, each active user suffers a significant rate loss. Particularly, a conventional single beam selection (SBS) scheme is used in an equivalent beamspace MIMO channel to reduce the required number of radio frequency (RF) chains, but this scheme does not properly mitigate the quantization error due to the limited number of the channel propagation clusters per-user. In addition, optimally selected beams or RF chains are operated at the same number of the precoded data streams. Consequently, each active user inherently loses a huge number of data streams utilizing the conventional SBS scheme. Therefore, we propose a hybrid beam selection (HBS) scheme in an equivalent beamspace MIMO channel to implement a multiple beam or RF chain group selection opportunity and choose a reliable channel propagation cluster per-active-user, which directly affects to mitigate the quantization error. The numerical result is verified by computer simulations in terms of a millimeter-wave MIMO downlink channel environment.
