Abstract

This paper proposes a novel three-dimensional (3D) regular-shaped geometry-based stochastic model (RS-GBSM) for non-isotropic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) mobile-to-mobile (M2M) Ricean fading channels. The proposed model, combining a two-sphere model and an elliptic-cylinder model, is the first 3D RS-GBSM that has the ability to investigate the impact of the vehicular traffic density (VTD) on channel statistics and jointly consider the azimuth angle and elevation angle. From the proposed model, the space-time (ST) correlation function (CF) and the corresponding space-Doppler (SD) power spectral density (PSD) are derived. Finally, some numerical results and interesting observations are given.
