Abstract: A method for generating a source point of shear waves for shear-wave elasticity imaging (SWEI) of an object. The method includes placing an ultrasound transducer on a surface of the object, vibrating the ultrasound transducer along a vibration axis utilizing a vibrator when the ultrasound transducer is placed on the surface of the object, and generating a shear wave in the source point by applying an acoustic radiation force on the source point. Applying the acoustic radiation force includes focusing an ultrasonic beam of the ultrasound transducer at a first focus point. The first focus point is located at the source point. The acoustic radiation force is applied simultaneously with vibrating the ultrasound transducer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a transmitting and a receiving methods of a modulated data stream (MOD). It is characterized in that at the transmitting side, it comprises the steps of: Generating a mixed data stream (MD) on the basis of mixing a first data stream (HP) with a second data stream (LP); Encoding said first data stream (HP) and said mixed data stream (MD); Generating a modulated data stream (MOD) on the basis of mapping said mixed data stream (MD). At the receiving side, it comprises the steps of: Generating a demapped data stream on the basis of demapping said modulated data stream (MOD); Generating a first and a second deinterleaved data streams on the basis of deinterleaving said demapped data stream; Decoding said first deinterleaved data stream; Generating an a priori information on the basis of mixing a part of the first decoded deinterleaved data stream with a mixing vector; and Decoding said second deinterleaved data stream using said a priori information.
