Abstract
An apparatus for processing data including a data compressor configured to compress ultrasonic data, and store the compressed ultrasonic data in a memory; and a data decompressor configured to read the stored ultrasonic data from the memory, decompress the read ultrasonic data, and transfer the decompressed ultrasonic data to a processor configured to perform beamforming.
Claims18
An apparatus for processing data, the apparatus comprising:
- a data compressor configured to compress first ultrasonic data, and store the compressed first ultrasonic data in a memory;
- and
- a data decompressor configured to read the stored first ultrasonic data from the memory, decompress the read first ultrasonic data, and transfer the decompressed first ultrasonic data to a processor configured to perform beamforming.
An apparatus for processing data, the apparatus comprising:
- a data downsampler configured to downsample first ultrasonic data;
- a data compressor configured to compress the downsampled first ultrasonic data, and store the compressed first ultrasonic data in a memory;
- a data decompressor configured to read the compressed first ultrasonic data from the memory, and decompress the read first ultrasonic data;
- and
- a data upsampler configured to upsample the decompressed first ultrasonic data;
- wherein the data decompressor is further configured to transfer the upsampled first ultrasonic data to a processor configured to perform beamforming.
