Abstract
Data acquisition and image reconstruction in acoustical imaging often requires high bit rates and complicated calculations in order to achieve good quality images in reasonable time. Therefore reducing the bit rates and simplifying the reconstruction algorithms are of great importance in this technology. It is possible to produce high-quality images by using only the phase information of the detected signal. The phase-only technique constitute a way of performing high-quality imaging at lower bit rates. This paper analyzes phase-only reconstruction, considers bit-rate reduction both in sampling and quantization, and develops the resolution enhancement algorithm associated with the phase-only technique.

Formulation of the Generalized Backward-Projection Method for Acoustical Imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized backward-projection (GPR) method is proposed for acoustic image reconstruction. But the formulation of the GPR is different from ours in terms of objectives and structures, and it is not applicable to all linear imaging systems.

Computation simplification for high-speed acoustical image reconstruction.

TL;DR: This paper is able to reduce the computation complexity by replacing the exponential and trigonometric operators by real and symmetric weighting functions and will not only significantly enhance the potential for high-speed acoustical image reconstruction, but also simplify the filter structure for VLSI hardware implementation.

The importance of phase in signals

TL;DR: Specific conditions under which a sequence can be exactly reconstructed from phase are reviewed, both for one-dimensional and multi-dimensional sequences, and algorithms for both approximate and exact reconstruction of signals from phase information are presented.

The Relative Importance of Phase and Amplitude in Acoustical Holography

TL;DR: In this article, the phase-only hologram was used to detect the phase of the object wave rather than both the phase and the amplitude of the wave, which can reduce the amount of data to be acquired because only the phase needs to be measured and the full dynamic range of the recording equipment can be used over the entire hologram aperture.
