  • Patent number: 11092572
    Abstract: The invention is a method for the nondestructive examination of a test specimen using ultrasound. Ultrasonic waves are coupled into the test specimen with ultrasonic transducers. Ultrasonic waves, which are reflected within the test specimen, are received by the ultrasonic transducers and converted into ultrasonic signals. The method determines an average noise level, to which all discrete signal information is subjected, determines volume elements assigned to each discrete signal information having a signal level with a signal-to-noise ratio R (which is referred to as an average noise level), of 6 dB?R, determines pairs of volumes separated by a distance A which is equal to or less than a wavelength of the ultrasonic waves coupled into the test specimen. Volumes are combined into a group and the discrete signal information is evaluated, based on at least one of polarization, frequency, wave type and wave mode.

  • Publication number: 20190369059
    Abstract: The invention is a method for the nondestructive examination of a test specimen by use of ultrasound, in which ultrasonic waves are coupled into the test specimen with ultrasonic transducers and ultrasonic waves reflected within the test specimen are received by the ultrasonic transducers and converted into ultrasonic signals. The ultrasonic signals are stored and subsequently divided into discrete signal information by use of a propagation time-based, phase-corrected superposition in a course of ultrasonic signal data processing. Discrete signal information is assigned to a volume element within the test specimen.

  • Patent number: 8248293
    Abstract: A method and a device for the spatially resolved detection and reconstruction of objects using microwaves is described, in which at least one object to be detected is subjected to microwaves that are generated by a plurality of microwave antennas and microwave fractions reflected by the object are detected and converted into microwave signals that can be analyzed, based on which an analysis for the spatially resolved object detection is carried out.
