A phased array sector scanning ultrasonic imaging system produces digitized baseband samples of the received ultrasonic echo signals amplified by a time gain control (TGC) to compensate for dispersion losses in the media in which the ultrasonic signals propagate. A time frequency control filter employs the same TGC control signal to calculate a phase shift correction as well as the coefficients which determine the characteristics of a bandpass filter such that the frequency dependent dispersion losses in the ultrasonic echo signals are compensated.
