Overview

The 802.15 THz Interest Groups focus is primarily concerned with THz communications and related network applications operating in the THz frequency bands between 275 and 3000GHz. Such THz communications applications would include; component to component, board to board, machine to machine, human to machine and human to human, (indoor and outdoor) wireless communications. THz communication applications cover multiple categories with varying requirements. As envisioned, THz communications would overall employ wireless modulation methods of limited complexity, omni and/or directional antenna systems, and would typically offer very high data transfer rates in multiples of 10 Gbps, and up to possibly 1 Tbps, for parity with future fiber optic capacities. THz wireless systems could support transmission distances ranging from the very short (few centimeters or less) to relatively long distances of several kilometers.
