Abstract :
In this contribution we show a practical implementation of a refocusing optical system that allows changing the standoff distance of a terahertz imaging radar by mechanically translating the transceiver. The technique shown here leads to very good imaging quality over standoff distances from 12.5 m to 37.5 m.
