An Overview of Signal Processing Techniques for Terahertz Communications

Understand

Terahertz (THz)-band communications are a key enabler for future-generation wireless communications systems that promise to integrate a wide range of data-demanding applications.

• Recent advances in photonic, electronic, and plasmonic technologies are closing the gap in THz transceiver design.
• Consequently, prospect THz signal generation, modulation, and radiation methods are converging, and corresponding channel model, noise, and hardware-impairment notions are emerging.
• Such progress establishes a foundation for well-grounded research into THz-specific signal processing techniques for wireless communications.
