Abstract

For the millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, hybrid precoding poses a big challenge because of its hardware cost and energy consumption and obvious performance loss in two typical architectures. One of the effective methods so-called the switch and inverter (SI)-based hybrid precoding architecture has been developed recently while lack of comprehensive performance analysis. In this paper, detailed performance analysis on energy efficiency is provided through simulation on the two-stage hybrid precoding, antenna selection (AS)-based hybrid precoding, and adaptive cross-entropy (ACE)-based hybrid precoding. It is aimed to prove the performance of ACE-based hybrid precoding is better than that of the others only with the limited ranges of values of all parameters (i.e., \( N \ge 36, \,1 \le K \le 12 \)). At last, the optimal values in these parameters (i.e., \( N = 36,\, K = 2 \)) are determined, and we prove that they can obtain the best performance.
