In this paper, based on the geometric stochastic modeling method, a space-time-frequency (S-T-F) non-stationary model with three-dimensional (3D) continuously arbitrary trajectory and self-rotation is proposed for sixth generation (6G) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) millimeter wave (mmWave) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) channels. It is the first 6G massive MIMO mmWave UAV channel model that considers the 3D continuously arbitrary trajectory of UAV in practice and models S-T-F non-stationarity of 6G UAV channels. In the proposed model, the calculation of channel impulse response (CIR) is developed, which considers the 3D time-varying accelerations and self-rotations of transceivers and clusters. To further model the S-T-F non-stationarity of UAV channels, a novel UAV-related birth-death (BD) algorithm based on correlated clusters is developed. In the developed algorithm, the impact of …
