摘要: Abstract A new formula for the pulse-compression ratio achievable with linear FM pulses (chirp signals) in ultrasonic applications is derived. The calculations take into account frequently omitted effects of transfer function an transducer. For a squared-cosine type transducer spectrum, optimum chirp signal bandwidth 1.14 times 6 dB 2.24 lower than case ideal broadband Measurements show close agreement presented theory.
