Abstract(in English) For the realization of a 5G wireless access network with super high bit rate and capacity, massive MIMO is introduced into small cells using higher frequency bands, and super high bit rate transmission with more than 10 Gbps data rate has been investigated. In massive MIMO, from the point of view of realization, hybrid beamforming(BF) that combines analog BF with digital precoding has been proposed, and joint processing of analog fixed BF and channel state information (CSI)-based precoding (FBCP) can achieve a throughput of more than 20 Gbps by using 400 MHz bandwidth in the 20 GHz band under single user (SU) environment. In this report, we extend the FBCP for multiuser (MU) transmission and show the optimum BF weight search interval and the optimum number of beams. Furthermore, we also show the influence of the number of users and received antennas over 10 Gbps data rate.
