Abstract

Abstract : A reported is presented on the first communication system using vectorial modulation schemes above 500 GHz. Using Schottky‐based electronic technologies at 588 GHz, potentialities of high‐level multi‐carrier modulation schemes for wireless links are analysed. The wireless link is composed of an emitter with a sub‐harmonic mixer for up‐conversion from 294 to 588 GHz and carrier modulation. A pumped zero‐bias detector is used at reception. Mono‐carrier signalling is realised using an up to 32‐symbol modulation scheme and multi‐carrier terahertz transmission is also achieved using several modulation schemes in parallel.
