The effect of cross-coupling on the temporal response of ultrasonic transducer arrays

Author

David Hadley

Abstract

An investigation was performed examining a possible cause of acoustic cross-coupling in ultrasonic transducer arrays. It was postulated that pulse velocity was decreased due to the physical presence of other ultrasonic pulses in the medium. It was demonstrated that average pulse velocity is independent of the number of opposing waves traveling through an acoustic medium. A description of variable pulse velocity is discussed.
