Communication over subTHz (110-180 GHz) Testbed

Our subTHz (170–180 GHz) frequency testbed offers a cutting-edge platform for wireless communication research and prototyping, enabling users to generate any waveform at the intermediate frequency (IF) level—including WiFi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, LTE, 5G, or fully custom signals—and transmit them over the subTHz spectrum using high-performance up/down converters. Researchers can design and implement their own waveforms with a maximum baseband bandwidth of 6 GHz, providing unmatched flexibility to experiment with ultra-high-speed communications, advanced modulation schemes, and next-generation wireless protocols.

This versatile testbed is ideal for academia and R&D, allowing in-depth exploration of ultra-broadband signal processing, channel modeling, propagation characteristics, and interference studies in subTHz bands. It also serves RF and THz researchers seeking to prototype and validate novel transceiver architectures, investigate frequency conversion and beamforming techniques, and evaluate the performance of high-frequency components such as mixers, amplifiers, and antennas. Additionally, the platform supports rapid prototyping and innovation, enabling the development of custom waveforms and applications, testing interoperability with existing wireless standards, and paving the way for future communication systems beyond 5G, including 6G and beyond. With this testbed, users gain a comprehensive, end-to-end environment to push the boundaries of high-frequency wireless communication research and development.
