We conduct novel coverage probability analysis of downlink transmission in a three-dimensional (3D) terahertz (THz) communication (THzCom) system. In this system, we address the unique propagation properties in THz band, e.g., absorption loss, super-narrow directional beams, and high vulnerability towards blockage, which are fundamentally different from those at lower frequencies. Different from existing studies, we characterize the performance while considering the effect of 3D directional antennas at both access points (APs) and user equipments (UEs), and the joint impact of the blockage caused by the user itself, moving humans, and wall blockers in a 3D environment. Under such consideration, we develop a tractable analytical framework to derive a new expression for the coverage probability by examining the regions where dominant interferers (i.e., those can cause outage by themselves) can exist, and the average number of interferers existing in these regions. Aided by numerical results, we validate our analysis and reveal that ignoring the impact of the vertical heights of THz devices in the analysis leads to a substantial underestimation of the coverage probability. We also show that it is more worthwhile to increase the antenna directivity at the APs than at the UEs, to produce a more reliable THzCom system.

The scarcity of spectrum resources in current wireless communication systems has sparked enormous research interest in the terahertz (THz) frequency band. This band is characterized by fundamentally different propagation properties resulting in diffe
rent interference structures from what we have observed so far at lower frequencies. In this paper, we derive a new expression for the coverage probability of downlink transmission in THz communication systems within a three-dimensional (3D) environment. First, we establish a 3D propagation model which considers the molecular absorption loss, 3D directional antennas at both access points (APs) and user equipments (UEs), interference from nearby APs, and dynamic blockages caused by moving humans. Then, we develop a novel easy-to-use analytical framework based on the dominant interferer analysis to evaluate the coverage probability, the novelty of which lies in the incorporation of the instantaneous interference and the vertical height of THz devices. Our numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of our analysis and reveal that the coverage probability significantly decreases when the transmission distance increases. We also show the increasing blocker density and increasing AP density impose different impacts on the coverage performance when the UE-AP link of interest is in line-of-sight. We further show that the coverage performance improvement brought by increasing the antenna directivity at APs is higher than that brought by increasing the antenna directivity at UEs.
The intelligent reflective surface (IRS) technology has received many interests in recent years, thanks to its potential uses in future wireless communications, in which one of the promising use cases is to widen coverage, especially in the line-of-s
ight-blocked scenarios. Therefore, it is critical to analyze the corresponding coverage probability of IRS-aided communication systems. To our best knowledge, however, previous works focusing on this issue are very limited. In this paper, we analyze the coverage probability under the Rayleigh fading channel, taking the number and size of the array elements into consideration. We first derive the exact closed-form of coverage probability for the unit element. Afterward, with the method of moment matching, the approximation of the coverage probability can be formulated as the ratio of upper incomplete Gamma function and Gamma function, allowing an arbitrary number of elements. Finally, we comprehensively evaluate the impacts of essential factors on the coverage probability, such as the coefficient of fading channel, the number and size of the element, and the angle of incidence. Overall, the paper provides a succinct and general expression of coverage probability, which can be helpful in the performance evaluation and practical implementation of the IRS.
Industrial automation is one of the key application scenarios of the fifth (5G) wireless communication network. The high requirements of industrial communication systems for latency and reliability lead to the need for industrial channel models to su
pport massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) and millimeter wave communication. In addition, due to the complex environment, huge communication equipment, and numerous metal scatterers, industrial channels have special rich dense multipath components (DMCs). Considering these characteristics, a novel three dimensional (3D) non-stationary geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) for industrial automation wireless channel is proposed in this paper. Channel characteristics including the transfer function, time-varying space-time-frequency correlation function (STFCF), and root mean square (RMS) delay spread, model parameters including delay scaling factor and power decay factor are studied and analyzed. Besides, according to the indoor factory scenario classification of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) TR 38.901, two sub-scenarios considering the clutter density are simulated. Simulated cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) of RMS delay spread show a good consistency with the measurement data.
We derive new expressions for the connection probability and the average ergodic capacity to evaluate the performance achieved by multi-connectivity (MC) in an indoor ultra-wideband terahertz (THz) communication system. In this system, the user is af
fected by both self-blockage and dynamic human blockers. We first build up a three-dimensional propagation channel in this system to characterize the impact of molecular absorption loss and the shrinking usable bandwidth nature of the ultra-wideband THz channel. We then carry out new performance analysis for two MC strategies: 1) Closest line-of-sight (LOS) access point (AP) MC (C-MC), and 2) Reactive MC (R- MC). With numerical results, we validate our analysis and show the considerable improvement achieved by both MC strategies in the connection probability. We further show that the C-MC and R-MC strategies provide significant and marginal capacity gain relative to the single connectivity strategy, respectively, and increasing the number of the users associated APs imposes completely different affects on the capacity gain achieved by the C-MC and R-MC strategies. Additionally, we clarify that our analysis allows us to determine the optimal density of APs in order to maximize the capacity gain.
Terahertz (THz) communication is now being considered as one of possible technologies for the sixth generation (6G) communication systems. In this paper, a novel three-dimensional (3D) space-time-frequency non-stationary massive multiple-input multip
le-output (MIMO) channel model for 6G THz indoor communication systems is proposed. In this geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM), the initialization and evolution of parameters in time, space, and frequency domains are developed to generate the complete channel transfer function (CTF). Based on the proposed model, the correlation functions including time auto-correlation function (ACF), spatial crosscorrelation function (CCF), and frequency correlation function (FCF) are investigated. The results show that the statistical properties of the simulation model match well with those of the theoretical model. The stationary intervals at different frequencies are simulated. The non-stationarity in time, space, and frequency domains is verified by theoretical derivations and simulations.
