Hi all,
I'm using the built-in transducer class and I was wondering if I can recover the transmit delays that were used to excite the transducer elements. If it is possible, how would I do it?
Also, can I define the input signal and delays of each element separately using the transducer class?
Regards,
João
Hi Joao,
You can get the delays by using the beamforming_delays method of the kWaveTransducer object. There is no way to set these directly. This could be modified keeping in mind how these are used within kspaceFirstOrder3D. Basically, there is a single source signal, and an indexed mask is used to extract the correct time point from these signals based on the beam forming delays. This is based on the delay_mask calculated by kWaveTransducer, which in turn depends on the beamforming_delays. There is a more detailed explanation in the user manual.
Hope that helps,
Brad.
