Ultra-reliable low latency communications (uRLLC) is adopted in the fifth generation (5G) mobile networks to better support mission-critical applications that demand high level of reliability and low latency. With the aid of well-established multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) information theory, uRLLC in the future 6G is expected to provide enhanced capability towards extreme connectivity. Since the latency constraint can be represented equivalently by blocklength, channel coding theory at finite block-length plays an important role in the theoretic analysis of uRLLC. On the basis of Polyanskiy's and Yang's asymptotic results, we first derive the exact close-form expressions for the expectation and variance of channel dispersion. Then, the bound of average maximal achievable rate is given for massive MIMO systems in ideal independent and identically distributed fading channels. This is the study to reveal the underlying connections among the fundamental parameters in MIMO transmissions in a concise and complete close-form formula. Most importantly, the inversely proportional law observed therein implies that the latency can be further reduced at expense of spatial degrees of freedom.
