Summary:
The 5m Dome A Terahertz Explorer (DATE5) is a proposed terahertz telescope to be deployed in Dome A, Antarctica, to exploit one of the best observing conditions at terahertz wavelengths on earth. In this paper, a design configuration for the near-field holography of the DATE5 surface measurement is presented. Important factors, such as measurement distance, operating frequency, and signal source location, are discussed. Special efforts have been given to the reduction of truncation errors. Simulation results under typical signal-to-noise ratios and design parameters are also provided.
