The demand for ever-increasing wireless data transmission rates and throughput area-densities, especially with regard to microcellular networks, internet access, back-hauling, inter-device transmission, and sensing applications, has spurred the exploration of new spectra in the millimeter-wave (30–300 GHz) and terahertz bands (0.1–10 THz), and the study of techniques for multi-Gigabit transmission based on very high-gain antennas [items 1) and 2) in the Appendix].
