Abstract
In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a photonic scheme based on frequency doubling and photo-mixing to generate dual-chirp signals in the terahertz (THz) band. A broadband dual-chirp THz signal with 28 GHz bandwidth, ranging from 364 GHz to 392 GHz, is successfully generated in the proof-of-concept experiment, resulting in a chirp rate of 0.028 GHz/ns for both up chirp and down chirp signals. THz dual-chirp signals featuring a large bandwidth are beneficial to enable high resolution and high accuracy by mitigating the range measurement error induced by the range-Doppler coupling effect. Therefore, the proposed system is expected to have a great potential for future THz radar applications.
