N2 - Multi-beam multiplexing can be implemented by uniform linear arrays (ULAs) based on the interleaved subarray architectures in previous works, which leads to significant cost and complexity reduction in its implementation. However, when a large number of antennas are available, for a required level of beamforming performance, we may not need to employ all of them for each scenario. As a result, further complexity reduction can be achieved by only employing a subset of the available antennas. In this work, a sparsity based antenna se-lection method is proposed in this context. Design examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
