contents To explore the full potential of ultra-massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems, it is fundamental to understand new ultra-massive MIMO channel characteristics and establish pervasive channel models. On this basis, large dimensional spatial-temporal transmission and random access technologies need to be investigated and evaluated for better practical implementation. Firstly, this paper reviews recent advances of ultra-massive MIMO technologies in the traditional spatial domain, including wireless channel characterization and modeling, channel estimation, spatial multiplexing, and precoding. Secondly, considering the dramatic increase of base station (BS) antennas and access users in ultra-massive MIMO systems, the confronted high dimensional complexity and computing burden of these ultra-massive MIMO technologies are indicated. To provide efficient and systematic solution, the emerging tendency to transform related technologies from the traditional spatial domain to beam domain is introduced. The utilities of large sparsity merit, reduced energy consumption, and improved usage of radio frequency (RF) chains in the beam domain channel are elaborated. At last, future challenges of ultra-massive MIMO communication systems are discussed.
