Abstract :
This paper provides linear analysis for a practical ultrasound imaging system with single-element transducers. A proper eighth-order linear ARMA model with inputs and outputs of voltage traces is given to present the transfer characteristics of such a practical system, so that echo signals containing tissue information can be collected and analyzed more properly
