Toward the first D-band Point to multipoint wireless system field test

The European Commission Horizon 2020 ULTRAWAVE “Ultra capacity wireless layer beyond 100 GHz based on millimeter waves” is in the final stage of development. The first ever field test of a D-band point to multipoint wireless system will be performed in a real environment. The ULTRAWAVE wireless system comprises a D-band Transmission Hub to produce a 30 degree sector with 600 m radius with multi gigabit per second data rate and a number of compact D-band terminals. The terminals will be distributed at different distances from the transmission hub to recreate real deployment condition. The paper describes the latest update on the development of the ULTRAWAVE systems and the field test set up.
