Hybrid precoding combined with large-scale antenna arrays is considered as a key enabling technology for millimeter wave (mmWave) communications for its advantages in both reducing the number of power-hungry radio frequency (RF) chains and providing for spatial multiplexing. In this paper, we consider a dynamically sub-connected hybrid architecture with hardware-efficient low-resolution phase shifters (PSs) for a wide-band mmWave multi-user multi-input single-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MU-MISO-OFDM) system. In this architecture, each RF chain is adaptively connected to a non-overlapping subarray corresponding to channel state information (CSI). Thus, multiple-antenna diversity can be fully utilized to mitigate the performance loss caused by the use of low-resolution PSs. Aiming at maximize the average sum-rate of the considered mmWave MU-MISO-OFDM system, we develop an iterative algorithm based on penalty dual decomposition (PDD) methods. Simulation results demonstrate the advantages of the considered dynamically sub-connected hybrid architecture.
