An IEEE Single Precision Floating Point Arithmetic-Based Apodization Architecture for Portable Ultrasound Imaging System.

Portable ultrasound systems are useful in point-of-care diagnostic. Improving the image contrast and spatial resolution over a large range of imaging depths while maintaining the minimum area and power are the desiderata in case of ultrasound systems. Adaptive apodization is used for obtaining high contrast and spatial resolution ultrasound images; however, the implementation of adaptive apodizati...
