Abstract:
1. A method for measurement or imaging of nonlinear interaction scattering between two waves along at least one measurement or image curve Γ(r) in a material object with nonlinear material parameters that produce wave scattering, comprising the steps of: a) transmitting in at least one transmit event i) at least one 1 b) selecting one or both of i) the time relation between said 1 c) detecting a wave scattered from the overlap region R(r,t) with at least one receiver and generating at least one receive signal that includes at least nonlinear interaction scattered signal components that relate to waves that are scattered from the nonlinear interaction between said 1 d) processing the receive signal to extract the nonlinear interaction scattered signal components and to form nonlinear interaction measurement or image signals along said measurement or image curve Γ(r).
