Abstract

The hybrid beamforming plays a critical role in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), addressing the high hardware costs associated with fully-digital beamforming. The design of hybrid beamforming, particularly satisfying the constant modulus constraint for analog beamforming, presents a complex non-convex problem. In this paper, we propose a GroupMixFormer-based hybrid beamforming network (GMF-HBN) for multi-user scenarios using orthogonal frequency di-vision multiplexing (OFDM) with both perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI). Simulation results show a significant performance improvement of our proposed GMF-HBN with perfect CSI compared to the Transformer-based and also demonstrate robustness with imperfect CSI.
