Abstract

An experimental verification of the impulse-response method to evaluate the transient acoustic field of pulsed ultrasonic radiators is presented. Several piezoelectric disk radiators were constructed for the experiments. Transient pressure measurements were obtained at several field points for pulsed wide bandwidth electrical excitations of the radiators. The pressure data were processed via an iterative deconvolution method to obtain experimental impulse responses. The method ideally eliminates the effects of the dynamic response of the transmit and receive system on the impulse responses. A comparison of the experimental and theoretical impulse responses shows the responses to be in general agreement.
