Abstract
This paper proposes a novel direction of arrival (DOA) estimation for hybrid millimeter wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems with the uniform planar array (UPA) at base station (BS). To explore the physical characteristics of antenna array in mmWave systems, the parameters of each channel path are decomposed into the DOA information and the channel gain information. We first estimate the initial DOAs of each uplink path through the two dimension discrete Fourier transform (2D-DFT) efficiently, and then the estimation accuracy can be further enhanced via the angle rotation technique. To examine the estimation performance, we derive the theoretical bounds of the mean squared error (MSE) performance of the DOA estimation in high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region. Simulation results are provided to corroborate the proposed studies, and show that the proposed DOA estimation method is close to the theoretical MSE performance.
