E. Problem Formulation
In this paper, we will mainly focus on the precoder design.
Instead of maximizing the spectral efficiency, we design Va
and Vd to maximize the mutual information achieved by Gaus-
sian signaling over the mmWave channel [4]. The precoder
optimization problem can be stated as:
s.t. kVa Vd k2 = K
where Vopt stands for the optimal fully digital precoder,
and Va , Vd respectively, are the analog and digital precoders
to be optimized.
