Title :
Comparison of Microwave, Millimeter Wave and Optical Techniques for Communications
Abstract :
The properties at millimeter and optical/infrared wavelengths of four key communications system elements will be surveyed. The key elements are: sensitivity of the receiving system, antenna properties, available transmitter power and atmospheric transmission. Fundamental equations, available data, and parameters on realizable systems will be presented and discussed.
