Abstract | Ultrasonic systems are widely used in imaging applications for non-destructive evaluation, quality assurance and medical diagnosis. These applications require large volumes of data to be processed, stored and/or transmitted in real-time. Therefore it is essential to compress the acquired ultrasonic radio frequency (RF) signal without inadvertently degrading desirable signal features. In this paper, two algorithms for ultrasonic signal compression are analysed based on: sub-band elimination using discrete wavelet transform; and decimation/interpolation using time-shift property of Fourier transform. Both algorithms offer high signal reconstruction quality with a peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) between 36 to 39 dB for minimum 80% compression. The computational loads and signal reconstruction quality are examined in order to determine the best compression method in terms of the choice of DWT kernel, sub-band decomposition architecture and computational efficiency. Furthermore, for compressing a large amount of volumetric information, three-dimensional (3D) compression algorithms are designed by utilising the temporal and spatial correlation properties of the ultrasonic RF signals. The performance analysis indicates that the 3D compression algorithm presented in this paper offers an overall 3D compression ratio of 95% with a minimum PSNR of 27 dB. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
