High-resolution imaging algorithm based on temporal focal characteristic of time-reversed signal

Abstract

Although the high-resolution materials can improve the resolution of the conventional time-reversal imaging (TRI) algorithms, they also limit the applications of TRI. In this paper, a new TRI algorithm with high-resolution is presented. Since the proposed algorithm utilizes multiple time reversal operation steps to improve resolution, it can realize high-resolution without invoking any high-resolution materials. The results show the resolution of the proposed algorithm is superior to that of the conventional TRI.
