Özet

© 2022 IEEE.Terahertz (THz) communication is one of the remarkable topics in the field of communication. Terahertz communication, which is one of the promising topics in meeting the rapidly increasing number of devices and the need for data speed and channel capacity, aims to increase the wireless communication frequency band up to terahertz level. When the terahertz frequency is used the wavelength decreases significantly, which causes electromagnetic waves to be more affected by the channel effects. There must be a clear line of sight (LOS) between the transmitter and the receiver in THz communication systems and the electromagnetic wave sent must be highly directive. The use of intelligent reflective surfaces in the terahertz band can provide advantages in the reflected wave being more directive. In this study, different Intelligent Reflective Surface designs in the literature are implemented and a performance comparison is presented in terms of beam characteristics.
