FQ80 Pulse length

The transmitted pulse length (ms) used in calculations is calculated by Echoview using the following equation:

FQ80_Pulse_length.gif

Where:

cw = wave count. This value is assigned by Echoview based on the pulse length mode read from the *.hac file in the Channel folder.

If pulse length mode equals:

0

1

2

Then wave count is:

10

32

100

f   =  acoustic frequency Hz (read from the *.hac file in the Channel folder)

ct =   pulse duration coefficient. The *.hac file in the Channel folder contains three pulse duration coefficients: a short value, medium value, and long value. Echoview selects one of these values based on the pulse length mode read from the *.hac file in the Channel folder.

If pulse length mode equals:

0

1

2

Then this pulse duration coefficient value is selected:

short

middle

long
