“…Particularly, above 275 GHz, there is a possibility to employ extremely large bandwidths for "radio" communications, since these frequency bands have not yet been allocated at specific active services, and standardization efforts have been becoming very active [1], [7]. Figure 1 summarizes experimentally achieved data rates of over 1 Gbit/s by transmission experiments with over-100-GHz carrier frequencies at 100-150 GHz [8]- [14], 200-250 GHz [15]- [21], 300-350 GHz [22]- [31], 400-450 GHz [23], [32], 500-700 GHz [27], [33]- [35]. Data points with triangles are demonstrations using electronicsbased transmitter, while data points with circles are achieved by photonics-based ones.…”
