With the massive deployment of 5G commercial, the interconnection of all things promotes the transformation and upgrading of the social production mode. The Internet of Things (IoT) is supported by the massive machine-type communications (mMTC), which is one of the three major application scenarios of 5G. Recently, a novel spreading based non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme named tandem spreading multiple access (TSMA) has been proposed for grant-free random access in mMTC. However, TSMA only considers the case of single antenna. In this article, a multi-antenna system scheme of TSMA with MIMO (MIMO-TSMA) is proposed to scale up user connections. In this scheme, spectrum efficiency can be promoted by sharing the non-orthogonal resources in different beams. The simulation results show that MIMO-TSMA can effectively take advantage of MIMO and TSMA to enhance the mMTC system performance.
