Abstract
Due to the limitations of the detector in the terahertz (THz) scanning imaging process and the problems of low contrast and poor visualization effect of original image, a THz continuous-wave scanning imaging system from 75 to 110 GHz is presented. The system is comprised of vector network analyzer (VNA), spread spectrum module, transmit and receive antennas, scanning stage and host computer. In addition, the automatic acquisition and storage of S-parameters is realized by Virtual Instrument Software Architecture (VISA) protocol, and the gray imaging method based on S-parameters is proposed. High-precision structural resolution test board is designed based on printed circuit board (PCB) method and the imaging experiment for the resolution test board is carried out. By comparing with original imaging results, better imaging quality of the system designed in this paper is obtained and imaging results show that the resolution of 1.8 mm could be achieved.
