摘要:
Phased signals of multiple channels are added without sampling clocks of multiple phases, and the limit to the frequency of a reference wave is reduced even at a constant sampling rate. The multichannel digital receiving device comprises a probe (2) which receives ultrasonic echo signals and outputs analog reception signals through multiple channels, A/D converters (31-3x), delay circuits (41-4x) which are respectively provided for the channels and delay digital data by prescribed delay time, digital quadrature detecting circuits (61-6x) which perform digital quadrature detection of delayed digital data and extract channel in-phase components and channel quadrature components, an adder circuit (71) which adds the channel in-phase components and outputs a synthesized in-phase component, and another adder circuit (7Q) which adds the channel quadrature components and outputs a synthesized quadrature component (7Q).
摘要:
A digital phase shifter capable of shifting the phases of data row by steps shorter than the sampling period even though the sampling signal the phase of which is fixed or a clock signal is used. This phase shifter comprises: a memory for storing consecutively time series data sampled at given periods in addresses corresponding to the sampling times; reading means for reading from this memory consecutively the data at sampling times earlier than the current sampling time by a desired period of time in synchronism with the sampling of the time series data; a register for holding several consecutive pieces of data including the latest one with respect to those read from the memory; and means for generating interpolated data in desired divided positions at the sampling intervals of a plurality of pieces of data held in this register by adding weights to the plural pieces of data held in it.
