Wireless data transmission with terahertz waves

摘要

A method for wireless data transmission between a transmitter and a receiver includes modulating signals onto an electromagnetic carrier wave in a frequency range between 0.1 and 10 terahertz, and transmitting the carrier wave by the transmitter and focusing the transmitted carrier wave in the direction of the receiver. The transmitter is aimed towards the receiver by an adjusting system using a wireless communication link between the transmitter and the receiver so as to provide automatic aiming.

1. A method the wireless data transmission between a transmitter and two receivers within a room, the method comprising:
modulating data to be transmitted onto a first electromagnetic carrier wave in a frequency range between 0.1 and 10 terahertz and a second electromagnetic carrier wave in a frequency range between 0.1 and 10 terahertz; transmitting the first and second carrier waves by the transmitter; and focusing the transmitted first carrier wave in a direction of a first receiver and focusing the transmitted second carrier wave in a direction of a second receiver, wherein the first and second receivers each comprise optical fibers for conducting terahertz light arranged such that the optical fibers of each receiver point outward to at least two different corners of the respective receiver; wherein the first and second carrier waves transmitted by the transmitter are aimed towards the first and second receivers, respectively, by an adjusting system using a wireless communication link between the transmitter and the first and second receivers so as to provide automatic aiming.
