In this paper, a new non-stationary Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) channel model is proposed. It could generate more smooth fading phase between the adjacent channel states and guarantee more accurate Doppler frequency, which is a great improvement comparing with those of the existing non-stationary geometry-based stochastic models (GBSMs) for V2V channels. Meanwhile, the spatial-temporal correlation function (STCF) as well as a temporal correlation function (TCF) and a spatial correlation function (SCF) are derived in details based on the power angle spectrums of both the mobile transmitter (MT) and mobile receiver (MR) following the Von Mises Fisher (VMF) distribution. Simulation results have demonstrated that the time-variant correlation properties of our proposed channel model have an excellent agreement with the theoretical results, which verifies the correctness of theoretical derivations and simulations. Finally, the TCF and stationary interval of the proposed model are verified by the measured results.
