Expensiveness and lack of N-pixels sensor affect the application of terahertz imaging. New compressed sensing theory recently achieved a major breakthrough in the field of signal codec, making it possible to recover the original image by using the measured values, which have much smaller number than the pixels in the image. In this paper, by comparing the measurement matrices based on different reconstruction algorithms, such as Orthogonal Matching Pursuit, Compressive Sampling Matching Pursuit and Minimum L_1 Norm algorithms, we proposed a terahertz imaging method based on single detector of randomly moving measurement matrices, designed the mobile random templates and an automatically template changing mechanism, constructed a single detector imaging system, and completed the single terahertz detector imaging experiments.
