Analog beamformer with large-scale antenna arrays has been widely considered in millimeter wave (mmWave) communication systems because of its superiority in hardware cost and energy consumption compared with traditional fully digital beamforming schemes. In this paper, we introduce an efficient dynamic subarray analog beamforming architecture with lowresolution phase shifters (PSs) for mmWave multiuser multipleinput single-output (MU-MISO) systems. In an effort to mitigate the performance loss due to the use of low- resolution PSs, each user can dynamically select a non-overlap subarray from total transmit antennas and use corresponding subarray analog beamformer to transmit signals. This dynamic subarray analog beamforming architecture can utilize the multi- antenna/multiuser diversities by dynamically adapting to channel state information (CSI) of users. An efficient dynamic subarray analog beamformer design algorithm is also presented, which aims at maximizing the sum-rate of the MU-MISO system. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed dynamic analog beamforming solution can significantly outperform the conventional fixed-subarray schemes.
