Extremely large-scale massive multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) is a potential enabling technology for 6th-generation (6G) communication. The XL-MIMO channel research will be important for XL-MIMO system development. In this paper, the measurement of XL-MIMO channels from 32 to 512 transmitting antenna elements in the 6 GHz band is carried out in an indoor corridor scenario. The delay spread, angular spread, and channel capacity are investigated. The results are compared with the indoor channel model in the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) TR 38.901. We find that the number of antenna elements has a small impact on the delay spread and angular spread. So the spatial non-stationary effect does not need to be considered specifically in the far-field range in this scenario. In addition, the special structure of the corridor leads to a difference in the comparison of the angular spread with the 3GPP model in each dimension. The closed environment of the corridor also results in a significant gap in channel capacity performance from the i.i.d. channel. This work can provide insights into XL-MIMO applications in the 6G era.
