Journal ArticleDOI

Five disruptive technology directions for 5G

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe five technologies that could lead to both architectural and component disruptive design changes: device-centric architectures, millimeter wave, massive MIMO, smarter devices, and native support for machine-to-machine communications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatially Sparse Precoding in Millimeter Wave MIMO Systems

TL;DR: This paper considers transmit precoding and receiver combining in mmWave systems with large antenna arrays and develops algorithms that accurately approximate optimal unconstrained precoders and combiners such that they can be implemented in low-cost RF hardware.
Journal ArticleDOI

Channel Estimation and Hybrid Precoding for Millimeter Wave Cellular Systems

TL;DR: An adaptive algorithm to estimate the mmWave channel parameters that exploits the poor scattering nature of the channel is developed and a new hybrid analog/digital precoding algorithm is proposed that overcomes the hardware constraints on the analog-only beamforming, and approaches the performance of digital solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Overview of Signal Processing Techniques for Millimeter Wave MIMO Systems

TL;DR: This article provides an overview of signal processing challenges in mmWave wireless systems, with an emphasis on those faced by using MIMO communication at higher carrier frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI

An overview of limited feedback in wireless communication systems

TL;DR: This tutorial provides a broad look at the field of limited feedback wireless communications, and reviews work in systems using various combinations of single antenna, multiple antenna, narrowband, broadband, single-user, and multiuser technology.
