Adaptive beamforming in row-column addressed arrays for 3D ultrasound imaging
In recent years, to reduce the complexity of implementation, the use of 2D arrays with restricted row-column addressing has been considered for 3D ultrasound imaging. In this paper, two methods of adaptive beamforming based on the minimum variance method are represented in such a way that the computational load is much less than using the full adaptive beamforming method. In both proposed metho...
متن کاملA Unified Systolic Array for Adaptive Beamforming
We present a new algorithm and systolic array for adaptive beamforming. Our approach improves on McWhirter's pioneering work in two respects. First, our algorithm uses only orthogonal transformations and this should have better numerical properties. Second, the algorithms can be implemented on one single pxp triangular array of programmable processors that offers a throughput of one residual el...
متن کاملProcessor-time-optimal systolic arrays
Minimizing the amount of time and number of processors needed to perform an application reduces the application's fabrication cost and operation costs. A directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms is used to de ne a time-minimal schedule and a processor-time-minimal schedule. We present a technique for nding a lower bound on the number of processors needed to achieve a given schedule of a...
متن کاملOptimal systolic arrays for decimation filters
Systolic array designs are presented for decimation lters with an in nite input signal. The rst design is based on an existing design for convolution and is shown to be time optimal with respect to our criteria. Two new designs are derived by reducing the number of processing cells to the theoretical minimum while retaining optimal timing. EDICS number SP 5.1.4.
متن کاملHigh Frequency Performance of Arc Arrays Using Adaptive Beamforming
A baffled arc array (BAA) comprises a circular array of sensors surrounding a cylindrical metal baffle, and beamforming is carried out by processing sensors on an arc centred on beamsteer. It is widely used in sonar for passive underwater surveillance. An important factor that limits the performance of the array at high frequencies is the appearance of grating lobes in the beamformer response. ...
