Photonics-Oriented THz Techniques for THz Communications

The talk will discuss photonics-driven sources for mm-wave and THz communications performance assessment, with measures with active devices of over-the-air devices. The talk will also discuss RIS measurements at 300GHz using quasi-optic VNA approach, to assess RIS losses and bandwidth. 300GHz links including RIS will also be shown. The analysis of the specular and non-specular behavior of the RIS will help to enable NLoS links for the 300GHz band.
