Summary:In this study, we proposed a hierarchical multi-beam search algorithm along with a hierarchical codebook to efficiently estimate the angle-of-departures (AoDs) and angle-of-arrivals (AoAs) and design the precoder and decoder in millimeter-wave massive MIMO systems with a uniform linear array. Existing hierarchical codebooks were designated for the case with antenna numbers being a power of two. We propose a more flexible codeword-generation algorithm applicable to the case with antenna number equals to any composite numbers. Moreover, we proposed a least-square based refinement to raise the accuracy of the estimated AoDs and AoAs with lower training overhead. It shows through the simulation results that the proposed algorithm achieves a comparable unsuccess rate compared with an existing method, yet demands lower training cost and complexity. It also shows that the gap in spectral efficiency with the proposed multi-beam search algorithm and perfect CSI case is insignificant.
