High-frequency bands such as millimeter-wave and terahertz require narrow beams due to path loss and shadowing. Beam alignment (BA) methods allow the transceivers to adjust the directions of these beams efficiently by exploiting the channel sparsity at high frequencies. This paper investigates BA for an uplink scenario, where the channel between the user equipment (UE) and base station (BS) consists of multiple paths. The BS wishes to localize the angle of arrival of each of these paths with a given resolution using the least number of time slots. At each time slot of the BA, the UE transmits a BA packet and the BS uses hybrid beamforming to scan its angular region. To minimize the expected BA duration, a group testing framework is devised, and the associated novel analog and hybrid BA strategies are described. Simulation studies show the performance improvement both in noiseless and realistic 5G mmWave BA settings.
