Multi-Layer Adaptive Hybrid Beamformers for Multi-Standard and Full-Duplex MIMO Communication

The growing need for higher data-rates and network capacity in Beyond-5G systems demands advanced multi-antenna spatial signal processing techniques. Network capacity can be improved by employing spatial multiplexing single-user/multi-user MIMO, inter-band/intra-band carrier aggregation beamforming, and full-duplex beamforming. This talk discusses architectural and circuit-level advances in mm-wave beamforming transceivers to enable aforementioned spatial processing techniques using single-layer/multi-layer hybrid beamformers.
