Method and apparatus for generating specific frequency response for ultrasound testing

摘要

A system and method for testing a physical attribute of a manufactured object that includes a laser generator and pulse generator that generate a plurality of Dirac-like pulses. The pulses, directed at an object, cause a sonic signal to be initiated indicative of the physical attribute of the manufactured object, and are detected. The system also controls the width of the Dirac-like pulses and time separation between pulses. A display may also be used to present the detected signal or physical attribute. The Dirac-like pulses are structured to produce a particular output in the manufactured object. The Dirac-like pulses may be altered dynamically in the presence of deviations from the expected output. One embodiment of the Dirac-like pulses is a series of pulses with pulse widths less than 20% a time separation between successive pulses.
