Abstract

The limits of applicability of terahertz band radiowaves for creating communication lines in the Earth’s atmosphere have been shown in a well-argued manner for the first time. It has been shown that the extension of the lines for near-ground paths will be comparatively small due to the properties of the atmosphere.
