Abstract :
It is found that the resonance frequencies of various identical transducer elements used in a transducer array differ slightly. Due to this, relatively high power sources are required to radiate a certain amount of power. A possible solution to this problem which can be easily realised in practice for a ceramic transducer array is presented.
