Ultrasound imaging through aberrating layers

Whereas aberrating layers are typically viewed as an impediment to medical ultrasound imaging, they can, surprisingly, also be used to our benefit. As long as we can model the effect of an aberrating layer, we can utilize ‘model-based imaging’, the imaging technique explored throughout this thesis, to reconstruct ultrasound images where...

Covariance matching techniques for radio astronomy calibration and imaging

The search for the answer to one of the most fundamental scientific questions, “How was the universe formed?”, requires us to study very weak radio signals from the early universe. In the last eighty years, radio astronomers have been able to use radio frequency observations for significant discoveries such as quasars, super massive Black Holes...
