Relative Pulse-Echo Sensitivity--The relative pulse-echo sensitivity may be<br />

obtained from the frequency response data by using a sinusoidal burst<br />

procedure. The value is obtained from the relationship of the amplitude of the<br />

voltage applied to the transducer and the amplitude of the pulse-echo signal<br />

received from a specified target.<br />

Time Response--The time response provides a means <strong>for</strong> describing the<br />

radio frequency (RF) response of the wave<strong>for</strong>m. A shock excitation, pulseecho<br />

procedure is used to obtain the response. The time or wave<strong>for</strong>m<br />

responses are recorded from specific targets that are chosen <strong>for</strong> the type of<br />

transducer under evaluation, <strong>for</strong> example, immersion, contact straight beam,<br />

or contact angle beam.
