A massive MIMO wireless system is a multiuser MISO system where base stations consist of a large number of antennas with respect to number of user devices, each equipped with a single antenna. Massive MIMO is seen as the way forward in enhancing the transmission rate and user capacity in 5G wireless. The potential of massive MIMO system lies in the ability to almost always realize multiuser channels with near zero mutual coupling. Coupling factor reduces by 1/2 for each doubling of transmit antennas. In a high bit rate massive MIMO system with m base station antennas and n users, downlink capacity increases as log2⁡m bps/Hz, and the capacity per user reduces as log2⁡n bps/Hz. This capacity can be achieved by power sharing and using signal weighting vectors aligned to respective 1×m channels of the users. For low bit rate transmission, time sharing achieves the capacity as much as power sharing does. System capacity reduces as channel coupling factor increases. Interference avoidance or minimization strategies can be used to achieve the available capacity in such scenarios. Probability distribution of channel coupling factor is a convenient tool to predict the number of antennas needed to qualify a system as massive MIMO.

Background: The 5G will lead to a great transformation in the mobile telecommunications sector. Objective: The huge challenges being faced by wireless communications such as the increased number of users have given a chance for 5G systems to be developed and considered as an alternative solution. The 5G technology will provide a higher data rate, reduced latency, more efficient power than the previous generations, higher system capacity, and more connected devices. Method: It will offer new different technologies and enhanced versions of the existing ones, as well as new features. 5G systems are going to use massive MIMO (mMIMO), which is a promising technology in the development of these systems. Furthermore, mMIMO will increase the wireless spectrum efficiency and improve the network coverage. Result: In this paper we present a brief survey on 5G and its technologies, discuss the mMIMO technology with its features and advantages, review the mMIMO capacity and energy efficiency and also presents the recent beamforming techniques. Conclusion: Finally, simulation of adopting different mMIMO detection algorithms are presented, which shows the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM)-based infinity-norm (ADMIN) detector has the best performance.
