The Fifth-Generation (5G) mobile communications system
is now on its way to being deployed worldwide and the scale of 5G subscribers in
some region has reached a very large scale. However, the attention of academia
and industry is increasingly shifting towards the next generation technology
called Sixth Generation (6G) and many pioneering works are being kicked off by
the major players in this filed, placing an important milestone in the history
of mobile communications. At this juncture, a view of the current state of the
art of 6G research and a vision of future communications are of great interest.
This paper thus aims to investigate up-to-date 6G research programs, activities,
and main viewpoints of representative countries, institutions and companies
worldwide. Then, the key technologies are outlined and a vision on ``What 6G
may look like?" is provided. This paper aims to serve as an enlightening
guideline for interested researchers to quickly get an overview when kicking
off their 6G research.
