Abstract

EL SISTEMA DE IMAGEN ACUSTICO, TIENE UNA SERIE DE N-TRANSDUCTORES CONCERTADOS PARA TRASDUCIR SEÑALES ELECTRICAS, TRANSMITIENDOLAS EN PULSOS ACUSTICOS Y PARA TRANSDUCIR PULSOS DE RESONANCIA ACUSTICA, EN SEÑALES RECEPTORAS ELECTRICAS; MEDIANTE UN TRANSDUCTOR MULTIPLICADOR CONECTADO CICLICAMENTE CON UN GRUPO ADYACENTE DE M-ELEMENTOS TRANSDUCTORES, MEDIANTE UN CONJUNTO DE CANALES DE RECEPCION O TRANSMISION IDENTICOS. CADA CANAL INCLUYE CAMBIOS INTERMEDIOS DE FASE, QUE PROPORCIONAN UN ENFOQUE DINAMICO, POR UN CONJUNTO DE RELOJES DE FASE INDIVIDUALES. LAS ORDENES DEL CONTROL DESMULTIPLICADOR CONECTAN UNO DE LOS DIFERENTES REJOJES DE FASES, CON EL MEZCLADOR DE CADA CANAL, EN UN ORDEN CICLICO DE CONEXIONES TRANSDUCTORAS, POR EL TRANSDUCTOR MULTIPLICADOR, DE GRUPOS DE M-ELEMENTOS TRANSDUCTORES ADYACENTES SELECCIONADOS PARA FORMAR LINEAS ACUSTICAS QUE ATRAVIESAN LA ORDEN DE ENTRADA.
