High-resolution, three-dimensional whole body ultrasound imaging system

This invention incorporates the techniques of geophysical technology into medical imaging. Ultrasound waves are generated from multiple, simultaneous sources tuned for maximum penetration, resolution, and image quality. Digitally recorded reflections from throughout the body are combined into a file available for automated interpretation and wavelet attribute analyses. Unique points within the object are imaged from multiple positions for signal-to-noise enhancement and wavelet velocity determinations. This system describes gaining critical efficiencies by reducing equation variables to known quantities. Sources and receivers are locked in invariant, known positions. Statistically valid measurements of densities and wavelet velocities are combined with object models and initial parameter assumptions. This makes possible three-dimensional images for viewing manipulation, mathematical analyses, and detailed interpretation, even of the body in motion. The invention imposes a Cartesian coordinate system on the image of the object. This makes reference to any structure within the object repeatable and precise. Finally, the invention teaches how the recording and storing of the received signals from a whole body analysis makes a subsequent search for structures and details within the object possible without reexamining the object.

Method for deblurring radar range-doppler images

A method for displaying information relating to the range and Doppler of a remote target includes transmitting electromagnetic energy toward the target, and receiving reflected signals defining a two-dimensional (range-Doppler) radar image. The reflected signals are matched-filtered, which tends to blur the image. The image is deblurred while the features of thermal noise enhancement and irregularity of the deconvolved output are constrained to produce a single point deblurring output.

A High Diversity Time-Space Coding and Decoding for MIMO Systems

A diversity transmission scheme uses a number of antennas that is greater than the limitation of two transmitting antennas in the well-known Alamouti scheme. In an embodiment comprising four antennas, the antennas transmit in pairs such that each antenna transmits a block that is used in the Alamouti scheme. This increases the transmission rate. For example, the transmission of two signals at a given time slot increases transmission rate by a factor of two. The invention not only increases the number of antennas, but also increases the transmission rate. At the receiver end, the code is decoded without matrix inversion and without much noise enhancement. Moreover, noise enhancement stability is increased by a simple, partial interference cancellation scheme, that results in improved decoding performance.

Joint high dynamic range compression and noise reduction

A high dynamic range (HDR) compression method and apparatus modeled after the heat equation describing temperature changes in a thin plate. This approach allows combining high dynamic range compression together with noise reduction in a single process, to be performed within the same iteration of the heat equation. Noise reduction is of particular concern while performing HDR compression because brightening of dark areas during high dynamic range compression has the potential to increase noise levels. Performing image processing techniques in combination according to the invention provides enhanced results while lowering the overall processing overhead. This innovation extends the heat equation analogy by adding anisotropic diffusion as an additional term, which allows joint operation of HDR and NR and mitigates noise enhancement within HDR compression during shadow enhancement.

Frequency Demodulation with Threshold Extension

A frequency demodulator comprises a frequency discriminator configured to generate a frequency modulation signal from frequency modulated signal, circuitry for generating a phase modulation signal from the frequency modulation signal, and a click reduction signal processing (CRSP) circuit operable to remove noise enhancements from the phase modulation signal caused by clicks. By first converting the frequency modulation signal to a phase modulation signal, noise enhancements caused by clicks are more readily distinguished from other noise in the phase modulation signal. After the noise enhancements have been removed by the CRSP, the frequency modulation is recovered substantially free of clicks. Removal of the clicks results in an improved output signal-to-noise ratio, thereby advantageously extending the onset of the threshold effect.
