Abstract
This paper presents the design of two-stage beam alignment methods employing a hybrid analog-digital antenna array and exploiting the beam pattern in a point-to-point millimeter-wave (mmWave) radio for mmWave massive multiple-input multiple-output systems. We investigate an antenna deactivating approach that generates wider beams at the coarse alignment stage and exploit the theoretical beam pattern at the fine alignment stage. Our numerical results show that the proposed two-stage methods can achieve a better beam alignment than existing exhaustive methods and avail measurements/complexity reductions by tuning key parameters governing the alignment performance.
