To describe the near field effect and the non-stationary characteristic of the Massive MIMO channel, a non-stationary 3D spatial channel model based on stochastic scattering clusters for Massive MIMO systems is proposed. The parabolic wave instead of the spherical wave is used to model the near field effect, and the channel capacity of the model is analyzed under parabolic wavefront condition. For non-stationary properties of massive MIMO channel, the effective scattering clusters set of transmitting and receiving antenna elements is determined based on the effective probability of scattering clusters, and the stochastic evolution of scattering clusters along the antenna array axis is modeled to describe properly the appearance and disappearance of scattering clusters. Simulation results demonstrate that parabolic wavefront and the stochastic evolution of effective scattering clusters are good candidates to model Massive MIMO channel characteristics.
