In the outer space, the electromagnetic wave can be transmitted without loss, which can ensure that the remote detection is realized by using smaller power, and moreover, the terahertz frequency band has an atmosphere transmission window, which is convenient for improving the anti-interference capability of the ground high-power radar. For the field of target identification, the terahertz frequency band radar has a wider working frequency band compared with microwave and millimeter wave radars, so that the imaging precision can be greatly improved.

For the research of the target scattering center, two means of experimental measurement and theoretical calculation can be adopted to acquire data. Experimental measurements can be used as proof-of-simulation means of theoretical calculations and even as the only tool for targets with extremely complex structures and materials.

In some embodiments, the transmitting front end of the 200GHz band transceiving system has the size of 239mm × 100mm × 58.8mm and the mass of 2.047 kg; the system receives the front end with the size of 160.1mm multiplied by 80mm and the mass of 0.945 kg; the size of the system chassis is 420mm multiplied by 365mm multiplied by 80mm, and the mass is 7.95 kg.
In the above embodiment, the third amplifier 210 and the sixth amplifier 509 can be based on the CHA1008-99F chip, which is the inventor's creative work, and the analysis is as follows:
as shown in fig. 3, the final amplifier (the third amplifier 210) of the front-end module 200 amplifies 100 GHz-105 GHz signals, and the signal power needs to reach about +14dBm, so as to meet the typical input power requirement of the frequency doubler (the fourth frequency doubler 204) of the next-stage FARRAN company, thereby ensuring that 200 GHz-210 GHz signals can be obtained at the output end of the front-end module 200 and the power is greater than 10 mW. As shown in fig. 4, the final amplifier of the front-end receiving module 500 amplifies the power of the 98-103 GHz signal to +10dBm, so as to meet the requirement of the harmonic mixer (third mixer 510) of the next stage FARRAN company on the local oscillation driving.
Therefore, a power amplifier needs to be specially designed in a frequency band of 98-105 GHz to ensure that the power of + 10-15 dBm can be output under the condition of receiving-20 dBm input power.
The existing power amplifier chips with the working frequency reaching 105GHz are two types, namely PA3-110 chips of HRL company and CHA1008-99F chips of UMS company. The data of the PA3-110 chips are shown in FIG. 10, FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the data of the CHA1008-99F chips are shown in FIG. 13, and it can be seen from the data of the two chips that the saturation output power of the PA3-110 chips reaches 13dBm and the gain is about 13dB, while the output 1dB compression point power of the CHA1008-99F chips is +5dBm and the gain is about 16dBm, and no saturation output power value is given on the data. At high output power requirements, those skilled in the art are generally inclined to select PA3-110 die without selecting CHA1008-99F chips based on the disclosed chip performance data.
However, in the actual test process, the inventor finds that the gain and the output power of the PA3-110 chip at 105GHz are reduced seriously, the measured saturated output power is about +3dBm (at 105GHz), which is far from the requirement of the invention, and the self-excitation is easily generated in the test process, which causes the abnormal working state. Moreover, for the above problems, even if adjustment and debugging are performed from multiple aspects, including cavity optimization design, addition of a 96-110 GHz band pass filter, microstrip line impedance matching debugging, chip micro-assembly technology optimization, and dc power supply optimization, the problems cannot be solved.
In this case, the inventors tested the CHA1008-99F chips, and the results are shown in tables 1 and 2.

TABLE 2 Large Signal test results for CHA1008-99F chips
According to the initial test result of the CHA1008-99F chip, the inventor finds that the small signal gain is about 15dB, and the output power can reach 10dBm when the gain is compressed by 2dB, which is far higher than the output 1dB compression point given in the data manual. Based on this finding, in the embodiment, the receiving end 3mm power amplifier (and the sixth amplifier 509) based on the CHA1008-99F chip design can be as shown in fig. 14 and fig. 15. As shown in fig. 14, after the 3mm frequency band signal generated after multiple frequency doubling, filtering and amplification is amplified by a CHA1008-99F chip primary amplifier, power distribution is performed by a four-way power divider, four-way power division signals are subjected to secondary amplification by four CHA1008-99F chips, and a 3mm output signal of +15dBm is obtained through power synthesis, so that the FARRAN frequency doubling operation can be promoted. As shown in fig. 15, the 3mm band signal generated after multiple frequency multiplication, filtering and amplification is directly subjected to secondary amplification by the CHA1008-99F chip twice, and a 3mm reception local oscillator signal meeting the requirement can be obtained, so that the FARRAN harmonic mixer can be pushed to work. The 3mm power amplifier at the receiving end shown in fig. 14 and 15 was tested, and the test results are shown in table 3. As can be seen from Table 3, the power amplifier designed based on the CHA1008-99F chip can meet the power requirement in the transceiving measurement system. Similarly, a transmitting end 3mm power amplifier (the third amplifier 210) may be designed based on the CHA1008-99F chip, and under the condition that the power requirements of the receiving end and the transmitting end are consistent, the design of the transmitting end 3mm power amplifier may be the same as that of the receiving end 3mm power amplifier, as shown in fig. 14 and fig. 15, and the test result of the transmitting end 3mm power amplifier after the design may be as shown in table 3.

The usability of the system is verified through the design and development of the 200GHz frequency band transceiving measurement system and the one-dimensional distance imaging test. Therefore, an effective and feasible test system can be provided for terahertz frequency band target electromagnetic radiation and scattering measurement.
