Method for orienting reflectors of a terahertz communications system

摘要

A method for orienting reflectors of a communications system in a zone, wherein the communications system includes an antenna and the reflectors. The antenna is operable in one or more frequencies in a frequency range from 0.1 THz to 10.0 THz, with each of the reflectors being spaced apart from each other and the antenna. The method includes the steps of digitally predicting a future motor vehicle density distribution in the zone based on obtained past motor vehicle density distributions in the zone; digitally computing an orientation of each reflector such that the estimated power reception of electromagnetic waves radiated by the antenna is globally maximized for each motor vehicle of the future motor vehicle density distribution; and orienting each reflector according to the digitally computed orientation.
