Filed: 2018-03-31
Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for real time processing of signals from an array of transducers for detecting transient elastic waves originating from unknown locations in a body, which may propagate in a dispersive fashion. The systems and methods allow real time combination and analysis of signals, including decisions regarding storage as new data is received. The methods described herein include designing arrays of detectors and methods for processing signals in real time given the constraints of the body under test determining whether to store the set of information while a new set of information is received for processing within a real time environment. The methods described herein result in the determination of small time shifts that place all signals into a coherent time base and the signals are then combined, achieving a composite waveform that possesses an increased signal-to-noise ratio over any single element.
