    In recent years, terahertz imaging has attracted great attention due to its advantages including penetrability and nondestructive property. The field imaging technology within the terahertz range is expected to enhance the terahertz image quality and improve its application effect. In this paper, an experiment on the data acquisition and digital refocusing of the terahertz light field was conducted. Firstly, the basic principle, system structure, and the method of reconstructing light field imaging were analyzed. Secondly, the terahertz focal plane array camera was used to collect the data about light field and digital refocusing was used to get the computed imaging. Finally, the reconstructed image was enhanced to obtain higher depth resolution, angle resolution, and object contour resolution. Experimental results showed the feasibility and ability of terahertz light field imaging to improve image quality and enrich retrieval effects.
