Abstract
A method for determining dimensional data of an object includes emitting terahertz radiation by a first transmitter onto a surface of the object. The terahertz radiation emitted by the first transmitter is received by a first receiver after the terahertz radiation has passed through the object. Terahertz radiation comprising a bandwidth of less than 5% of a carrier frequency of the terahertz radiation is emitted by a second transmitter onto at least one location on the surface of the object. The terahertz radiation emitted by the second transmitter is received by a second receiver after the terahertz radiation has passed through the object. A dimension of the object is determined from one of: (i) the terahertz radiation received by the second transmitter; and (ii) a temporal or spatial change of the terahertz radiation received by the second receiver in consideration of that received by the first receiver.
