Current wireless networks such as Wi-Fi, LTE-Advanced, etc., work in the lower radio spectrum, below 6 GHz. Experts warn that soon this band will become congested due to mushrooming data traffic. It is calculated that by 2024, 17,722 million devices will be connected.
Improved Broadband Wireless Connectivity With A New Communication Design
A paper published in the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications , by Konstantinos Dovelos and Boris Bellalta, members of the Wireless Networking research group, with the participation of researchers from Queen s University Belfast (UK).
Current wireless networks, for example, WiFi, LTE-Advanced, etc., operate on the lower end of the radio spectrum, below 6 GHz. Experts warn that soon this band will become congested due to the explosive growth of data traffic. An estimated 17,722 million connected devices in 2024.
To meet the growing and ubiquitous demand for broadband wireless connectivity, communication via terahertz (THz) bandwidth (0.1 - 10 THz) is seen as a necessary option for 6G networks. and beyond, due to the large amount of spectrum available at these frequencies.
I m a molecular virologist specialising in respiratory viruses, primarily influenza virus. I work on the interactions between cellular components and viral RNAs, and specifically how viruses have evolved to hijack host cellular machinery to increase their replication efficiency.
I have research experience at Ulster University (UK), Duke University (USA), the Institut Pasteur (France) and Queen s University Belfast (UK).
