摘要

We present a new transmit pulse encoding scheme for ultrafast phased-array imaging called sparse orthogonal diverging wave imaging (SODWI). In SODWI, Hadamard encoding is used to selectively invert transmit pulse phases beamformed with a diverging wave delay profile. This approach has the advantage of delivering energy to a much wider field of view than conventional Hadamard-encoded multielement synthetic transmit aperture (HMSTA), making it more suitable for phased-array applications. With SODWI, we use a synthetic transmit element delay insertion (STEDI) approach which produces significant improvements in resolution, grating lobe level, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) over HMSTA. We also show how in SODWI a subset of the Hadamard codes can be sparsely selected to increase the imaging frame rate at the expense of image quality. SODWI is then compared with a variety of beamforming schemes for phased-array applications, including HMSTA, STEDI-HMSTA, diverging wave imaging (DWI), synthetic aperture (SA), and focused imaging. We present the results by implementing this technique on a 64-channel custom beamforming platform with a 40-MHz phased array. When a full set of codes is used, SODWI outperforms focused imaging contrast and SNR by 2.7 and 1.8 dB in addition to an 8x increase in frame rate, respectively.
