The high capacity demands of 5G communications require multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technologies and millimeter wave communications to enables the required multi-Gbps. The small wavelengths of millimeter wave communications allow packing a huge number of antennas in a small space, enabling massive MIMO schemes, with the associated high capacity gains. The hardware impairments inherent in low complexity hardware implementations are characteristic of these systems. This means strong nonlinear effects throughout the transmission chain that will have negative impact on the system’s performance. In this paper we study the impacts of these nonlinear effects on the overall performance of an OFDM massive MIMO communication employing a hybrid analog/digital architecture. For this purpose, we develop analytical and semi-analytical tools for performance evaluation of nonlinear effects in those systems. These tools are shown to be very accurate. They make it possible to predict the nonlinearities’ penalties in hybrid systems and/or to assess the optimal operation point for a specific nonlinear amplifier.
