However, it suffers from high sidelobe level, poor resolution and low contrast. An alternative is the Minimum-Variance (MV) beamformer which results in a higher image quality both in terms of spatial resolution and contrast. Even so, these benefits come at the expense of a higher computation complexity that limits its real-time capabilities. One solution that recently gained noticeable interest is the exploit of the sparsity of the scanned medium. Based on this assumption, we extend the DAS method to yield sparse results by using the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). Our realistic simulations demonstrate that the proposed beamforming (BF) method shows better performance than the classical DAS and MV in terms of lateral resolution, sidelobe reduction and contrast.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115129969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Directives such as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS and RoHS2) regulate the sale of electrical and electronic equipment containing hazardous substances, such as lead, entering the European marketplace. However, lead-based piezoceramics have been exempt due to the lack of a genuine lead-free equivalent. Lead-free piezoceramics were first developed in the 1950s, however their relatively poor properties when compared to PZT left them largely neglected until the implementation of the European directive. This study investigates the incorporation of a modern lead-free piezoceramic, a variant of bismuth sodium titanate (BNT), into a commercial power ultrasonic transducer used in semiconductor wire bonding. It is reported that a device containing BNT was capable of forming wire bonds, and that the lead-free transducer exhibited properties that could make them suitable in other power ultrasonic applications.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115496218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Time-reversal (TR) focusing based on numerical simulations of ultrasound propagation can be used to correct for the aberrating skull layer. For weakly heterogeneous media, k-space and pseudospectral time domain (PSTD) methods have been shown to have increased accuracy and efficiency compared to the finite-difference time domain (FDTD) methods typically used in TR. However, their suitability for highly heterogeneous, transcranial simulations is less clear. Here, this is established in terms of spatial and temporal sampling requirements through numerical testing and comparison with FDTD schemes. PSTD schemes are shown to give equal or better accuracy compared to FDTD schemes for modelling propagation through tissue-realistic heterogeneities, which, combined with the reduction in numerical dispersion obtained with k-space correction, recommends them for use in simulated TR.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115638271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most difficult challenges to utilize TV white space for personal use is the miniaturization of frequency and bandwidth tunable filters to select vacant TV channels. We have developed a one-chip bandwidth tunable filter by wafer-level transfer-integration of BaSrTiO3 (BST) film varactors and surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonators on a lithium tantalate wafer. The 3 dB bandwidth of the bandwidth tunable filter is tuned between 3.25 MHz and 6.25 MHz by applying 7V to the varactors, while the center frequency was constant at 1.004 GHz, as designed. These filters were installed in our developed prototype cognitive radio systems based on the IEEE802.11af draft and successfully demonstrated wireless LAN communication on TV frequency band.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124416154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For an example of typical size and in comparison to the conventional approach, we showed that the FMM requires less than 0.25% of the memory and less than 24% of the number of complex-valued multiplications. The FMM thus enables the numerical solution of the regularized (e.g. by compressed sensing) linear ISP on standard personal computers.

The effectiveness of DAX in-vivo is often reduced because of the strong reverberation clutter signals caused by near-field structures. In this work, we propose a modified version of DAX, known as Multi-Apodization with Cross-correlation (MAX), which suppresses reverberation clutter in a highly robust manner by utilizing multiple pairs of receive apodizations followed by normalized cross-correlation. Our simulation, experimental and initial clinical results show that MAX achieves a large improvement over DAX in terms of image contrast and shows great potential for more accurate diagnosis in clinics.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120982665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore these traditional focusing transducers are commonly large in size and long in focal length, which are not suitable for interventional ultrasound imaging or therapy. For solving this problem, in this paper, a micromachined self-focusing piezoelectric composite ultrasonic transducer was designed and evaluated. The theoretical analysis was deduced based on the electromechanical response of piezoelectric composites and theory of Fresnel half-wave band interference. This self-focusing transducer has many advantages, including micro size, short focal length, low acoustic impedance, high electromechanical coupling coefficient. Besides these, because it was based on micro-electromechanical systems, the fabrication process precision is high and reliable. These results hold good potential for interventional ultrasound therapy or imaging applications.","PeriodicalId":153901,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127364299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
