Super-resolution in time-reversal acoustics.
The phenomenon of super-resolution in time-reversal acoustics is analyzed theoretically and with numerical simulations. A signal that is recorded and then retransmitted by an array of transducers, propagates back though the medium, and refocuses approximately on the source that emitted it. In a homogeneous medium, the refocusing resolution of the time-reversed signal is limited by diffraction. ...
متن کاملTime-reversal acoustics in biomedical engineering.
Time reversal is a very powerful method for focusing through complex and heterogeneous media and shows very promising results in biomedical applications. In this paper, we review some of the main applications investigated during the past decade. An iterative implementation of the time-reversal process allows tracking gallstones in real time during lithotripsy treatments. In this application dom...
متن کاملTumor treatment by time-reversal acoustics
There has been a great deal of work in ocean science over the last 10 years in using acoustic channel models in the signal processing. The goal has been to compensate for the “barbershop” effect in which a SONAR system confuses the true source with its reflections in the acoustic mirrors formed by the ocean surface and bottom. Separately, in medicine, hyperthermia has emerged as an important ar...
متن کاملTime-reversal acoustics and maximum-entropy imaging
Target location is a common problem in acoustical imaging using either passive or active data inversion. Time-reversal methods in acoustics have the important characteristic that they provide a means of determining the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the scattering operator for either of these problems. Each eigenfunction may often be approximately associated with an individual scatterer. The...
متن کاملTime exposure acoustics
An analysis of a passive seismic method for subsurface imaging is presented, in which ambient seismic noise is employed as the source of illumination of underground scatterers. The imaging algorithm can incorporate new data into the image in a recursive fashion, which causes image background noise to diminish over time. Under the assumption of spatially-incoherent ambient noise, an analytical e...
