It has been proposed to be utilised for inter-machine and on-body communications, because of its on-surface two-dimensional feature. It provides a flexible two-dimensional platform and shows many advantages such as power savings, excellent electromagnetic compatibility characteristic, non-line-of-sight communication over traditional space wave wireless communication systems. When compared to wired systems, surface wave systems can provide a wide band channel for one-to-many/many-to-one communications. This work we will demonstrate our recent work in the concept of surface wave gain and formulate the surface wave wireless link equation for the first time. A 52 GHz 3-dB bandwidth test bed was constructed to validate the theoretical and simulation results in the proposed method and equation. date: 2018-11-19 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: https://doi.org/10.1109/APCAP.2018.8538070 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1621324 doi: 10.1109/APCAP.2018.8538070 isbn_13: 9781538656488 lyricists_name: Tong, Kin-Fai lyricists_id: KFTON30 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Proceedings of the 2018 IEEE 7th Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation, APCAP 2018 pagerange: 425-428 event_title: 2018 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP) event_location: Auckland, New Zealand event_dates: 05-08 August 2018 book_title: 2018 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP) citation: Tong, KF; Wan, JX; Wu, XDWCB; (2018) On the Gain and Link Equation for Reactive Millimetre-wave Surface Wave Propagation System.
