DESCRIPTION:Wireless backhaul/fronthaul links are proposed as an alternativ
 e for massive deployment of small cells because they are more flexible\, e
 asy to deploy\, and cost effective as compared to the traditional optical 
 fiber links. High frequency millimetre wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) l
 inks meet the capacity requirements of next generation communication netwo
 rks. However\, mmWave/THz links suffer from susceptibility to weather cond
 itions and require a line-of-sight (LoS) connection\, which is the main hu
 rdle in urban regions. The networked flying platforms (NFPs) provide a pos
 sibility of wireless LoS fronthaul link and thus\, enable the implementati
 on of mmWave/THz in commercial systems at a fast pace\, and is expected to
  boom in the next years.\n\nIn this talk we will start with a literature r
 eview on the chronological order for mmWave/THz communications\, Intellige
 nt reflecting surface (IRS)\, UAVs and multihop technology with the object
 ive to introduce the different technologies that will merge to solve the c
 hallenges faced by Terahertz communications. Along the whole talk\, we wil
 l highlight the different technologies that enable the tackled scenario\, 
 together with the comparison to the different proposals from the literatur
 e/industry to deal with such scenario. Different standardization efforts f
 or Terahertz communications will be presented.\n\nSpeaker(s): Nizar Zorba\
