1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

THz communication stands as a pivotal technology for 6G networks, designed to address the critical challenge of data demands surpassing current microwave and millimeter-wave (mmWave) capabilities. However, realizing Tbps and kilometer-range transmission confronts the "dual attenuation dilemma" comprising severe free-space path loss (FSPL) (>120 dB/km) and atmospheric absorption. This review comprehensively summarizes our group's advancements in overcoming fundamental challenges of long-distance THz communication. Through systematic photonic-electronic co-optimization, we report key enabling technologies including photonically assisted THz signal generation, polarization-multiplexed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with maximal ratio combining (MRC), high-gain antenna-lens configurations, and InP amplifier systems for complex weather resilience. Critical experimental milestones encompass record-breaking 1.0488 Tbps throughput using probabilistically shaped 64QAM (PS-64QAM) in the 330-500 GHz band; 30.2 km D-band transmission (18 Gbps with 543.6 Gbps·km capacity-distance product); a 3 km fog-penetrating link at 312 GHz; and high-sensitivity SIMO-validated 100 Gbps satellite-terrestrial communication beyond 36,000 km. These findings demonstrate THz communication's viability for 6G networks requiring extreme-capacity backhaul and ultra-long-haul connectivity.
