Research Abstract |
Analysis algorithms in ultrasonic pulsed Doppler method including the fast Fourier transform (FFT), autocorrelation, and the wavelet transform (WT) were compared via simulations and experiments using varying values of number of pulse repetition (N_pulse) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We show that there is an appropriate N_pulse for each algorithm that depends on the SNR; specifically, the value of N_pulse increases with decreasing SNR. The WT was relatively unaffected by noise. Therefore, a WT is the effective method for measuring velocity distributions for improving the temporal resolution.
