Measurement of 2x2 LoS MIMO Terahertz Channel
Abstract
This paper examines the performance of a 2x2 Line of Sight (LoS) Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) channel at three terahertz frequencies-340 GHz, 410 Ghz, and 460 GHz. While theoretical models predict very high channel capacities, we observe lower capacity which is explained by asymmetric transmit-to-receive signal strengths as well as due to signal attenuation over longer distances. Overall, however, we note that at 460 Ghz, channel capacity of higher than 12 bps/hz is possible even at sub-optimal inter-antenna spacings (for different distances). An important observation is also that we need to maintain appropriate receive signal levels at receive antennas in order to improve capacity.
