Sampling Frequency #23

Closed DandelionB closed 1 month ago

DandelionB commented 7 months ago

Dear Kris,

We are using C3HD and have a problem regarding its sampling frequency for the RF data.

The RF data recorded at imaging depths above 4 cm sometimes had a sampling frequency of 15 MHz or 20 MHz while we expect a constant frequency of 15 MHz as in the posted info: "At depths < 2cm, 60MHz sampling is applied; at 2 - 4cm, 30MHz sampling is applied; at depths > 4cm, 15 MHz sampling is applied".

For example, at 6 cm, we got 1568 data points/line -> sampling frequency was 20 MHz, not 15 MHz. Sometimes, at 6 cm, we got 1168 data points/line -> sample frequency was 15 MHz as expected.

So is it true that the sampling frequency from Clarius can vary out of 60/30/15 MHz and inconsistently varies even at the same depth?

Thank you very much!

yes, it can vary, latest software uses transmit frequency to adjust the RF sampling rate, not depth anymore
