Abstract: This paper looks at beamforming for 5G mmWave networks at Quadrature baseband(QBB) compared to RF. Beamforming is a very key aspect of 5G networks and coupled with MIMO as it will be able to accommodate the much needed functionalities of 5G Technology which has to accommodate billions of devices. In this research a QBB beamforming approach is presented as a possible solution to this challenge. ODFM signals are used in the MatLab simulations to be able to compare results at RF versus QBB. On-going research in this area entails that it is possible to have an optimal solution to solve some of the challenges being faced as the 5G network system roll out continues.
