With the development of 6G technologies, traditional uniform linear arrays (ULAs) and uniform planar arrays (UPAs) can hardly meet the demands of three-dimensional (3D) full-space coverage and high angular resolution. Spherical antenna arrays (SAAs), with elements uniformly distributed on a spherical surface, provide an effective solution. This article analyzes the issues of traditional arrays, summarizes the advantages and typical structures of SAAs, discusses their potential application scenarios, and verifies their superiority over UPAs via a case study. Finally, key technical challenges and corresponding research directions of SAAs are identified, providing a reference for their research and application in future wireless communications.
