摘要:

针对太赫兹无线信号与传统频谱的差异性制约其应用于室内通信场景的问题,提出了一种室内太赫兹无线信号传播的修正模型,并分析了宽带单载波太赫兹无线信号传播及覆盖性能。具体地,考虑障碍物厚度导致的吸收损耗问题,建立了宽带太赫兹信道传递函数模型。基于射线追踪技术,阐明了障碍物厚度、信号带宽对上述性能的影响。研究表明,非视距障碍物反射可增强覆盖。此外,太赫兹通信存在覆盖范围与容量性能间的均衡问题,且理论频谱效率随太赫兹载频升高而下降。

Abstract:

To tackle the problem that radio signal in the terahertz band had different features compared to that in the conventional spectrum, which restricted its application to indoor communication scenarios, a modified propagation model of terahertz radio signal was proposed.Based on the model, the propagation and coverage performances of wide-band single-carrier terahertz radio signal were analyzed.In particular, the wide-band terahertz channel transfer function was constructed, taking the absorption loss introduced by the thickness of the obstacles into account.Using the ray tracing technique, the impacts of the obstacles’ thickness and the bandwidth on the propagation and coverage performances were examined, showing that the coverage performance can be improved by leveraging the reflections from the non-line-of-sight obstacles.Moreover, the trade-off between the coverage radius and the capacity of terahertz communications is revealed, and it is further found that the theoretical spectral efficiency decreases as the carrier frequency of terahertz radio signal increases.

Key words: terahertz, propagation, bandwidth, single-carrier, coverage
