Abstract

resumo sonda conjunto de matriz ultrassônica; e pluralidade de sondas conjunto de matrizes ultrassônicas uma sonda transdutora de conjunto de matriz tem um conjunto 2d de elementos transdutores acoplado a retardos ajustáveis para cada elemento. uma matriz de comutador controlável combina uma pluralidade de sinais de elementos diferentemente retardados para formarem um sinal de patch e produzir uma pluralidade de sinais de patch dessa forma. a matriz de comutador determina a configuração de patch em consideração ao número de canais de um formador de feixes do sistema que completa a formação dos feixes, e os retardos de elementos são estabelecidos em consideração à configuração dos elementos a serem utilizados em cada patch. a formação do sinal de patch pode ser feita em dois estágios, incluindo um estágio que inclui um combinador de sinais ligado com fios físicos. a sonda do conjunto matriz pode ser operada com formadores de feixes dos sistemas dimensionados de formas diferentes ou a mesma pilha de transdutores utilizada em diferentes sondas configuradas para configurações específicas de formador de feixes.
