Various integrated ci rcuits for the THz radio front-end functional blocks\, including power and low-noise amplifiers\, modulators and demodulators\, and oscillators\, ha ve been demonstrated in the last decade. In the first experimental demonst ration conducted in 2004\, bulky instruments originally developed for THz spectroscopy were used to transmit pulsed THz signals carrying a 7-kHz ban dwidth audio signal across a short free space. However\, recently\, there have been several successful demonstrations of multi-Gbps data transmissio ns at THz frequencies with state-of-the art devices and components. In thi s talk\, the first prototype of a THz wireless communications system desig ned under the ‘touch-and-go’ scenario will be presented. I clarify the concept of the KIOSK data downloading system\, cover some considerations in this work\, and present a brief link-budget plan. We will then overview technologies for implementing THz components operating at 300 GHz and the ir performance\, followed by preliminary investigation of the channel resp onses and the experimental demonstration results. At the end of the presen tation\, we will discuss several issues that need to be addressed for the future of the THz communications systems\, in terms of system architecture s\, packaging and potential applications.\n\nCo-sponsored by: CSUN IEEE & Eta Kappa Nu Chapters\n\nSpeaker(s): Ho-Jin Song\, \n\nAgenda: \nDinner 7: 30 - 8PM\n\nPresentation: 8PM to 9:15PM\n\nRoom: JD 1568\, Bldg: Jacaranda Hall\, 18111 Nordhoff St\, Northridge\, California\, United States\, 9133 0 LOCATION:Room: JD 1568\, Bldg: Jacaranda Hall\, 18111 Nordhoff St\, Northri dge\, California\, United States\, 91330 ORGANIZER:j.c.weiler@ieee.org SEQUENCE:1 SUMMARY:Terahertz Communications at 300 GHz: Devices\, Packages and System URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/194871 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>Recent progress in semiconductor devices o n compound semiconductor or silicon substrates have made it possible to pr oduce more power and receive a signal with less noise at THz frequencies.
