A single-layer, quartz-supported frequency selective surface (FSS) with a gear-shaped metallic array is proposed for 6G communication. Full-wave simulation, along with the method of equivalent circuit, is applied to investigate the transmission characteristics, while the distributions of surface current distribution, as well as electric field and magnetic fields, are studied to further interpret the transmission mechanism. The simulation indicates that the resonant frequency of 131 GHz with an attenuation of −40 dB can be obtained and the relative bandwidth approximates to 12%. The transmission response of the fabricated FSS prototype is measured using the free space measurement setup. The measured results show a good agreement with the simulated ones, which demonstrates the reliability of the design and fabrication. The proposed FSS with the advantages of simple structure, low cost, easy fabrication, and integration can be applied in enhancing the communication performance and anti-interference ability in the future 6G communication system.

It has been confirmed that platelets play a key role in tumorigenesis. Tumor-activated platelets can recruit blood cells and immune cells to migrate, establish an inflammatory tumor microenvironment at the sites of primary and metastatic tumors. On the other hand, they can also promote the differentiation of mesenchymal cells, which can accelerate the proliferation, genesis and migration of blood vessels. The role of platelets in tumors has been well studied. However, a growing number of studies suggest that interactions between platelets and immune cells (e.g., dendritic cells, natural killer cells, monocytes, and red blood cells) also play an important role in tumorigenesis and tumor development. In this review, we summarize the major cells that are closely associated with platelets and discuss the essential role of the interaction between platelets with these cells in tumorigenesis and tumor development.
