    A multibeam massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) configuration employs beam selection with high power in the analog part and executes a blind algorithm such as the independent component analysis (ICA), which does not require channel state information in the digital part. Two-dimensional (2-D) multibeams are considered in actual power losses and beam steering errors regarding the multibeam patterns. However, the performance of these 2-D beams depends on the beam pattern of the multibeams, and they are not optimal multibeam patterns suitable for multibeam massive MIMO configurations. In this study, we clarify the performance difference due to the difference of the multibeam pattern and consider the multibeam pattern suitable for the system condition. Specifically, the optimal multibeam pattern was determined with the element spacing and beamwidth of the element directivity as parameters, and the effectiveness of the proposed method was verified via computer simulations.
