Calculating power from Complex data recorded for WBT
The power data from the transducer is provided in a complex format.
Power output for a sample from a WBT can be calculated using the following equation:
| • | Power = power [Watt] |
| • | N segments = number of elements in the split beam |
| • | |Complex| = magnitude of the complex sample |
| • | Z transceiver = impedance for transceiver [Ω] |
| • | Z transducer = impedance for transducer [Ω] |
Impedance values are retrieved from the Configuration XML datagram.
