Terahertz (THz) waves (300 GHz to 10 THz) constitute the least studied part of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum with unique propagation properties that make them attractive to emerging sensing and imaging application. As opposed to optical signals, THz waves can penetrate several non-metallic materials (e.g., plastic, wood, and thin tissues), thus enabling several applications in security monitoring, non-destructive evaluation, and biometrics. Additionally, THz waves scatter on most surfaces distinctively compared with lower/higher frequencies (e.g., microwave/optical bands). Therefore, based on these two interesting THz wave propagation properties, namely penetration and scattering, I worked on THz imaging methods that explore non-line-of-sight (NLoS) information. First, I use a THz microscopy method to probe the fingertips as a new technique for fingerprint scanning. Due to the wave penetration in the THz range, I can exploit sub-skin traits not visible with current approaches to obtain a more robust and secure fingerprint scanning method. I also fabricated fingerprint spoofs using latex to compare the imaging results between real and fake fingers. Next, I focus on THz imaging hardware topologies and algorithms for longer-distance imaging applications. As such, I compare the imaging performance of dense and sparse antenna arrays through simulations and measurements. I show that sparse arrays with nonuniform amplitudes can provide lower side lobes in the images. Besides, although sparse arrays feature a much smaller total number of elements, dense arrays have advantages when imaging scenarios with multiple objects. Afterward, I propose a THz imaging method to see around obstacles/corners. THz waves’ unique scattering properties are helpful to implement around-the-corner imaging. I carried out both simulations and measurements in various scenarios to validate the proposed method. The results indicate that THz waves can reveal the hidden scene with centimeter-scale resolution using proper rough surfaces and moderately sized apertures. Moreover, I demonstrate that this imaging technique can benefit simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in future communication systems. NLoS images enable accurate localization of blocked users, hence increasing the link robustness. I present both simulation and measurement results to validate this SLAM method. I also show that better localization accuracy is achieved when the user's antenna is omnidirectional rather than directional.
