While the majority of research with terahertz radiation from large‐aperture antennas used high‐intensity femtosecond laser pulses with low repetition rates, we used a regenerative amplifier with a repetition rate up to 300 kHz. This high repetition rate allows us to combine a high‐power large‐aperture transmitter and dipole antenna detection. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 17: 23–27, 1998.
