Description
Trex Enterprises plans to design and build prototypes of a multi-Gigabit data rate THz radios. It will fabricate two prototype units that will be integrated with field binoculars for filed demonstrations to potential customers / users. The sub-THz Gigabit-plus link will be tested at a range between 200 meters and 400 meters. The system will automatically adjust its THz carrier frequency in the vicinity of 183 GHz atmospheric water vapor absorption line to control propagation range of the radio signal. This modality can be useful for creating short range"micro"- and"pico"cells in the network areas having high node density. It will also allow interference free and secure link operation in other applications. The radios will automatically perform handshaking operations and user will be able to transfer high volume data in ether bidirectional or unidirectional mode.
