Abstract
Coordinated multipoint (CoMP) and massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) are two of promising technologies in future intelligent high-speed railway (HSR) communication systems, whose performance is fundamentally determined by the characteristics of cooperative mMIMO channels. This article proposes a dynamic three-dimensional (3-D) wideband geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) for HSR cooperative mMIMO channels. The proposed GBSM employs a sphere model and two elliptic-cylinder models to describe common and uncommon clusters for different links, and integrates the dynamic cluster evolution in both time and array domains. Statistical properties of the cooperative mMIMO model are investigated, such as multi-link spatial cross-correlation function and sum rate capacity. A corresponding dynamic 3-D wideband simulation model for the HSR cooperative mMIMO channel is also proposed. Finally, numerical results of the statistical properties are analyzed, and the proposed model is validated by realistic HSR channel measurement data, in terms of dual-link spatial cross-correlation and channel capacity. This model is more practical and will be helpful for facilitating the design and performance evaluation of future intelligent HSR communication systems.
