摘要:为了提高空化图像的质量,该文提出一种结合空化微泡母小波技术 (CBWT)、波束合成和平方差值求
和减影 (SSD) 的超快速主动空化成像方法。该方法首先发射平面波并接收空化回波信号;其次,基于 RPNNP
模型构建空化微泡母小波,对空化回波信号进行连续小波变换;再次,对获得的小波系数进行波束合成,包括
延迟叠加算法 (DAS)、最小方差算法 (MV) 和相干系数最小方差算法 (MVCF),再结合 SSD,得到空化图像。
结果表明,与未采用 CBWT 相比,基于 CBWT-DAS-SSD、CBWT-MV-SSD 和 CBWT-MVCF-SSD 的空化噪
声比分别提高了 16.34 dB、15.07 dB、17.71 dB。该方法可提高空化成像质量,为空化动态实时监控提供参考。

Abstract: In order to improve the quality of cavitation image, in this paper, an ultrafast active cavitation
imaging combined cavitation bubble wavelet (CBWT), beamform algorithm and sum-of-squared differences
(SSD) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, plane wave pulse is transmited and cavitation echo signal is received.
Secondly, based on RPNNP model, the cavitation bubble mother wavelet is constructed and continuous wavelet
transform is performed on cavitation echo signal. Thirdly, the obtained wavelet coefficients are beformed
by delay-and-sum algorithm (DAS), minimum-variance algorithm (MV) and coherence coefficient minimum
variance algorithm (MVCF). Furthermore, SSD algorithm is used to obtain the cavitation image. The results
show that compared with cavitation images without CBWT, the cavitation-to-noise ratios of cavitation images
based on CBWT-DAS-SSD, CBWT-MV-SSD and CBWT-MVCF-SSD increased by 16.34 dB,15.07 dB and
17.71 dB, respectively. The method in this paper can improve the quality of cavitation image, and may provide
reference for dynamic real-time monitoring of cavitation bubbles.
