Paradoxically, some of these methods involve unshaped, i.e. unfocused, beams.

7.1 Advanced emission modes

  • Full Matrix Capture (FMC)

    This is a generic acquisition mode. It consists of successively activating each element and recording the signals from all the elements on reception: there is therefore no beam formed. For an n-element translator, we obtain n 2 signals containing a large amount of information on the component...
