Abstract:Recently, Terahertz (THz) band communications at various atmospheric altitudes have been studied due to larger bandwidth availability and reduced water vapor concentrations at higher atmospheric altitudes as compared to sea level. In this paper, as special cases of 6G aerial communication networks, we consider: (1) Low Altitude Platform-to-High Altitude Platform (LAP-to-HAP), (2) HAP-to-HAP, and (3) HAP-to-Satellite (HAP-to-SAT) GHz-to-THz broadband communications over (1-1000) GHz by analyzing total path loss… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
