Abstract
In this contribution, the paper presents the antenna design and implementation of a mechanically scanned and multiplexed terahertz imaging radar. By using of a quasi-optical waveguide, we can multiplex our signal into two different beams and double the time acquisition of the image without increasing the number of transceivers. Only few additional optical components are needed.
