Model-based Diagnosis for Sandwiched Ultrasonic Transducers
The overall performance of sandwiched ultrasonic transducers can be substantially degraded due to defects. Model-based diagnosis can be an attractive technique for monitoring the performance of sandwiched ultrasonic transducers. Using electromechanical models of the transducer, most parameters of the system can be determined based on measurements of electrical input quantities only. This contri...
متن کاملFeature-based localization using fixed ultrasonic transducers
We describe an approach for mobile robot localization based on geometric features extracted from ultrasonic data. As is well known, a single sonar measurement using a standard POLAROIDTM sensor, though yielding relatively accurate information regarding the range of a reflective surface patch, provides scant information about the location in azimuth or elevation of that patch. This lack of suffi...
متن کاملCoupling of MEMS ultrasonic transducers
MEMS ultrasonic transducers are potentially valuable in both medical and non-destructive testing applications. A prime advantage of these transducers is their wide bandwidth together with the potential for economical fabrication of detector arrays. In this paper, we discuss issues related to the coupling of these transducers to solid and liquid media. We will show that appropriate choice of the...
متن کاملControlled excitation of ultrasonic transducers
The reproducibility of ultrasonic measurements complicates the interpretation of measurement results. The signal from ultrasonic transducers varies for to several reasons, like manufacturing tolerances in a batch, cable length, amplifier properties etc. A known problem that is caused by this effect is the quantitative interpretation of C-scan images from laminates, particularly the porosity pre...
