Two-stage Method for Millimeter Wave Channel Estimation

The millimeter wave is a promising technique for the next generation of mobile communication. The large antenna array is able to provide sufficient precoding gain to overcome the high pathloss at millimeter wave band. However, the accurate channel state information is the key for the precoding design. Unfortunately, the channel use overhead and complexity are two major challenges when estimating the channel with high-dimensional array. In this paper, we propose a two-stage approach which reduces the channel use overhead and the computational complexity. Specifically, in the first stage, we estimate the column subspace of the channel matrix. Based on the estimated column subspace, we design the training sounders to acquire the remaining coefficient matrix of the column subspace. By dividing the estimation task into two stages, the training sounders for the second stages are only targeted for the column subspace, which will save the channel uses and the computational complexity as well.
