Expected Outcome:THz communications emerge as a strong contender for 6G communication for a number of high-capacity applications, such as cellular backhaul, direct connection in industrial environments, and joint communication and sensing. Sub-THz applications (starting at 100 GHz up to 300 GHz) however open a range of issues and notably: i) very large number of antennas to co-integrate compared to mmWave implementation; ii) low PA power output; iii) limitation due to constant envelope of operations; iv) integration of heterogeneous technologies for antennas and for beamformers (e.g. BiCMOS and InP for front-ends, CMOS for other functionalities). In addition, different antenna architectures are being considered.
Scope: Detailed descriptions can be found in the ECS SRIA2023.
Aspects of ECS value chain integration are important for the KDT programme and the whole European ECS sector, across applications and across capabilities. Consortia are encouraged to submit proposals that take this aspect into account.
Proposals that cut across disciplines, support platform building, interoperability, establishment of open standards are particularly e...

Scope: Detailed descriptions can be found in the ECS SRIA2023.
Aspects of ECS value chain integration are important for the KDT programme and the whole European ECS sector, across applications and across capabilities. Consortia are encouraged to submit proposals that take this aspect into account.
Proposals that cut across disciplines, support platform building, interoperability, establishment of open standards are particularly encouraged; even outside the regular ECS sector.
Proposals shall encourage SMEs to participate in the developments, in particular paying attention to the needs of SMEs, involve SMEs in project execution, and develop solutions that can be taken up and/or exploited by SMEs
Proposals shall attempt to establish links with other projects and consortia from the Horizon Europe family (within cluster 4 or in other clusters) working on topics related to the proposal.
Note that National priorities may be applicable to specific topics (refer to Annex 4 “COUNTRY SPECIFIC ELIGIBILITY RULES” ).

Consortium characteristics
:
The aid is European, you can apply to this line any company that is part of the European Community.
characteristics of the Proyecto
Expenses related to personnel working directly on the project are based on actual hours spent, based on company costs, and fixed ratios for certain employees, such as the company's owners.
Payments to external third parties to perform specific tasks that cannot be performed by the project beneficiaries.
They include the acquisition of equipment, amortization, material, licenses or other goods and services necessary for the execution of the project
Miscellaneous expenses such as financial costs, audit certificates or participation in events not covered by other categories
Overhead costs not directly assignable to the project (such as electricity, rent, or office space), calculated as a fixed 25% of eligible direct costs (excluding subcontracting).
Characteristics of financing
For the eligible budget, the intensity of the aid in the form of a lost fund may reach From a 70% up to a 100%.
