A next generation system that allows data transmission at 10 times faster rate compared to 5G mobile networks is the latest development by scientists. Allowing faster downloads and improves connection speeds.
The Hiroshima University and National Institute of Information and Communications Technology researchers in Japan announced details of Terahertz (THz) transmitter that can transmit digital data at rate more than 100 gigabits per second using 300 gigahertz band.
This THz band is of vast frequency resource that is likely to get used for future ultrahigh-speed wireless communications. A new transmitter that can communicate at 105 gigabits speed per second with frequency of 290 GHz to 315 GHz is achieved by group of developers.
This frequency range is at present unallocated and is between the frequency range 275 GHz to 450 GHz. It was demonstrated that the wireless link speed in 300-GHz band can be increased with the help of quadrature amplitude modulation called QAM. Now, this year. About 6 times higher speed per channel data rate is shown. This exceeds even 100 gigabits per second, becoming a pioneer in doing so.
In this data rate, a complete content of DVD will get transferred within just fraction of seconds. A transmitter that can provide 10 times increased transmission power compared to previous versions was developed earlier this year, said Minoru Fujishima from Hiroshima University.
