Title:
マルチライン受信ビームフォーマ及び方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP7121838
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Microbeamformers coupled to groups of array elements which partially beamform groups of elements for the formation of multiple receive lines are provided. In the microbeamformers, a delay line can be configured to output multiple signal streams that can be delayed by different amounts to support multiline receive in a microbeamformer. A read process during beamforming is not destructive, thereby allowing multiline receive beams to be generated from a single delay line.
