Abstract :
In a tomographic imaging system, the key is to collect a sufficient number of scattered field points to recover the currents in the inverse scattering problem. This can be accomplished by using a real array of multiplexed antennas for real time imaging. In this paper, a W-Band Retina for Terahertz tomographic imaging is presented. A system based on a retina, a collector and an illuminator is described and the results of a fabricated retina are shown.
