Abstract

Propagation modeling is fundamental in terahertz (THz) wireless communications due to the insurmountable computational burden of electromagnetic simulation methods when applied to THz propagation problems in the presence of obstacles, as well as the high cost of measurement campaigns. This has promoted the development of several propagation and channel models for various scenarios, which require the knowledge of the reflection, transmission, and scattering properties of the main obstacles present in the propagation environment. In this chapter, we will present a review on the characteristics of such fundamental interaction mechanisms that take place when obstacles are present, including the electromagnetic characteristics of materials at THz frequencies.
