Millimeter wave beam alignment (BA) is a challenging problem especially for large number of antennas. Compressed sensing (CS) tools have been exploited due to the sparse nature of such channels. This paper presents a novel deterministic CS approach for BA. Our proposed sensing matrix which has a Kronecker-based structure is sparse, which means it is computationally efficient. We show that our proposed sensing matrix satisfies the restricted isometry property (RIP) condition, which guarantees the reconstruction of the sparse vector. Our approach outperforms existing random beamforming techniques in practical low signal to noise ratio (SNR) scenarios.

This article investigates beam alignment for multi-user millimeter wave (mmWave) massive multi-input multi-output system. Unlike the existing works using machine learning (ML), an alignment method with partial beams using ML (AMPBML) is proposed with out any prior knowledge such as user location information. The neural network (NN) for the AMPBML is trained offline using simulated environments according to the mmWave channel model and is then deployed online to predict the beam distribution vector using partial beams. Afterwards, the beams for all users are all aligned simultaneously based on the indices of the dominant entries of the obtained beam distribution vector. Simulation results demonstrate that the AMPBML outperforms the existing methods, including the adaptive compressed sensing, hierarchical search, and multi-path decomposition and recovery, in terms of the total training time slots and the spectral efficiency.
Millimeter-wave is one of the technologies powering the new generation of wireless communication systems. To compensate the high path-loss, millimeter-wave devices need to use highly directional antennas. Consequently, beam misalignment causes strong performance degradation reducing the link throughput or even provoking a complete outage. Conventional solutions, e.g. IEEE 802.11ad, propose the usage of additional training sequences to track beam misalignment. These methods however introduce significant overhead especially in dynamic scenarios. In this paper we propose a beamforming scheme that can reduce this overhead. First, we propose an algorithm to design a codebook suitable for mobile scenarios. Secondly, we propose a blind beam tracking algorithm based on particle filter, which describes the angular position of the devices with a posterior density function constructed by particles. The proposed scheme reduces by more than 80% the overhead caused by additional training sequences.
We introduce fast millimeter-wave base station (BS) and its antenna sector selection for user equipment based on its location. Using a conditional random field inference model with specially designed parameters, which are robust to change of environm ent, InferBeam allows the use of measurement samples on best beam selection at a small number of locations to infer the rest dynamically. Compared to beam-sweeping based approaches in the literature, InferBeam can drastically reduce the setup cost for beam alignment for a new environment, and also the latency in acquiring a new beam under intermittent blockage. We have evaluated InferBeam using a discrete event simulation. Our results indicate that the system can make best beam selection for 98% of locations in test environments comprising smallsized apartment or office spaces, while sampling fewer than 1% of locations. InferBeam is a complete protocol for best beam inference that can be integrated into millimeter-wave standards for accelerating the much-needed fast and economic beam alignment capability.
This paper investigates the hybrid precoding design for millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with finite-alphabet inputs. The precoding problem is a joint optimization of analog and digital precoders, and we treat it as a matrix factorization problem with power and constant modulus constraints. 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 represents the channel matrix and Nrf is the number of radio frequency (RF) chains. Second, we show that the coupled power constraint in our matrix factorization problem can be removed without loss of optimality. Third, we propose a Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS)-based algorithm to solve our matrix factorization problem using gradient and Hessian information. Several numerical results are provided to show that our proposed algorithm outperforms existing hybrid precoding algorithms.

Huge overhead of beam training imposes a significant challenge in millimeter-wave (mmWave) wireless communications. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a wide beam based training approach to calibrate the narrow beam direction according to the channel power leakage. To handle the complex nonlinear properties of the channel power leakage, deep learning is utilized to predict the optimal narrow beam directly. Specifically, three deep learning assisted calibrated beam training schemes are proposed. The first scheme adopts convolution neural network to implement the prediction based on the instantaneous received signals of wide beam training. We also perform the additional narrow beam training based on the predicted probabilities for further beam direction calibrations. However, the first scheme only depends on one wide beam training, which lacks the robustness to noise. To tackle this problem, the second scheme adopts long-short term memory (LSTM) network for tracking the movement of users and calibrating the beam direction according to the received signals of prior beam training, in order to enhance the robustness to noise. To further reduce the overhead of wide beam training, our third scheme, an adaptive beam training strategy, selects partial wide beams to be trained based on the prior received signals. Two criteria, namely, optimal neighboring criterion and maximum probability criterion, are designed for the selection. Furthermore, to handle mobile scenarios, auxiliary LSTM is introduced to calibrate the directions of the selected wide beams more precisely. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed schemes achieve significantly higher beamforming gain with smaller beam training overhead compared with the conventional and existing deep-learning based counterparts.
