Abstract

The Low THz spectrum has potential for high resolution imaging applications such as automotive radars and high data rate communications. Propagation studies and test platforms require compact portable equipment which may be achieved by extending the frequency range of commercial battery powered vector network analyzers (VNA). The development of both desktop and portable 110-670 GHz VNA based extenders is described along with some recent experimental test data using these instruments.
