Lin\u0027s paper considers a future, indoor ultra-speed THz communication scenario, where the\u0026nbsp;access point, equipped with multiple antenna subarrays, is\u0026nbsp;deployed to\u0026nbsp;serve multiple users with different distances. By exploiting the transmission windows in the THz band,\u0026nbsp;a low-complexity, distance-aware multi-carrier transmission\u0026nbsp;scheme is developed.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESpecifically, Lin has proposed an\u0026nbsp;adaptive beamforming strategy with antenna subarray selection that\u0026nbsp;dynamically generates different numbers of beams for different users. Simulation results show that the THz system\u0026nbsp;can effectively support tera-bit-per-second (Tbps)\u0026nbsp;transmissions.
