Terahertz(thz) communications are considered as very promising for the sixth-generation(6 G) ultra-dense wireless networks. However, thz signals suffer from well-known severe path loss, which consequently shortens the coverage of thz communication systems. To deal with this issue, precoding technique is expected to be beneficial to extend the limited coverage by providing directional beams with ultra large number of antenna arrays. In this paper, we overview the state-ofthe-art developments of thz precoding techniques such as reconfigurable intelligent surface based precoding, hybrid digital-analog precoding and delay-phase precoding. Based on the survey, we summarize several open issues remaining to be addressed, and discuss the prospects of a few potential research directions on thzprecoding, such as one-bit precoding, precoding for hardware impairments and thz security precoding. This overview will be helpful for researchers to study innovative solutions of thzprecoding in the future 6 G wireless communications.
