Abstract

The eventual practical deployment of a terahertz (THz) wireless communication system requires a proper channel model. By considering the unique characteristics of THz propagation, this paper proposes a geometric-statistic channel model for system-level simulation. This work also provides an evaluation methodology for investigating the system performance. Numerical results reveal that the proposed channel model is not only suitable to describe the physical characteristics of the THz channel, but also to investigate system-level performance.
