摘要

In this work, we measure the propagation losses for estimating the performance of a communication link in the frequency band of 350 GHz. The losses are measured by having a transmitter and receiver at varying distances upto 8.5 m. Due to limited ability to move the transmitter and receiver, reflection methods are employed. Using this simple method, we show the presence of water absorption lines in the spectra at 380 and 448 GHz. We also study the data-rate enhancement using dielectric lenses. Finally, using the measured data, we estimate that data- rates of 1 Gbps for 8.5 m and 100 Gbps for 1 m distance are possible via a communication link at 350 GHz.
