Abstract: Employing large antenna arrays and utilizing large bandwidth have the potential of bringing very high data rates to future wireless communication systems. However, this brings the system into the near-field regime and also makes the conventional transceiver architectures suffer from the wideband effects. To address these problems, in this paper, we propose a low-complexity frequency-aware beamforming solution that is designed for hybrid time-delay and phase-shifter based RF architectures. To reduce the complexity, the joint design problem of the time delays and phase shifts is decomposed into two subproblems, where a signal model inspired online learning framework is proposed to learn the shifts of the quantized analog phase shifters, and a low-complexity geometry-assisted method is leveraged to configure the delay settings of the time-delay units. Simulation results highlight the efficacy of the proposed solution in achieving robust performance across a wide frequency range for large antenna array systems.
