Abstract :
Non destructive testing of materials is an open field for signal processing applications. Bicepstrum analysis of the signal can be employed and pulse reconstruction achieved. Some simulations will be done in order to check the accuracy of this technique. The general applicability will be illustrated with ultrasonic signals coming from two different cement paste blocks.
