contents Extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) is a key enabler for sixth-generation (6G) communications. However, near-field channel estimation is particularly challenging due to spherical-wave propagation and spatial non-stationarity. To tackle this challenge, we propose a structured sparse Bayesian learning framework with adaptive dictionary updating for near-field non-stationary channel estimation. Specifically, the proposed method iteratively updates the distance parameters within an adaptive dictionary, thereby enhancing the representation capability without increasing the dictionary size. Moreover, we develop a hierarchical prior model that jointly captures polar-domain sparsity and structured dependency, enabling efficient Bayesian inference. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms existing polar-domain dictionary-based methods while achieving low dictionary overhead.
