The invention discloses a terahertz security imaging
system based on a vector network analyzer, which includes a
signal generation and acquisition device, an
analog front end, a scanning drive device, a
signal and
data processing device; the vector network analyzer is used as the
signal generation and acquisition device, Through the analog front-end, the
step frequency signal of the X-band is up-converted to the terahertz band to radiate to the space to be inspected, and then the target
echo signal of the terahertz-band is down-converted to the X-band through the analog front-end for
signal processing; the main control computer is used for
signal processing. The scanning drive device, signal and
data processing device are controlled, and the user can adjust the corresponding scanning parameters according to the actual situation to achieve optimal detection, which improves the efficiency of the security inspection
system; Such substances have good penetrability, and can effectively detect hidden items in packages and human clothing, with
high resolution and accuracy.
