Due to the high cost and power consumption of radio frequency (RF) chains, millimeter wave (mm-wave) communication systems equipped with large antenna arrays typically employ less RF chains than the antenna elements. This leads to the use of a hybrid MIMO processor consisting of a RF beamformer and...
