Abstract
This paper is concerned with phase aberration measurement and aberration correction suitable for ultrasonic linear array systems. We assume that the aberration is caused mainly by a layer of velocity inhomogeneity located near the transducer surface, such as a fatty layer under the skin surface. The phase aberration profile along the array is measured in the following way.
