- Abstract
Ultrasound is widely used in medical and engineering inspections due to its non-destructive and easy-to-use characteristics. However, the complex internal structure of plant stems presents challenges for ultrasound testing. The density and thickness differences in various types of stems can cause different attenuation of ultrasonic signal propagation and the formation of different echo locations. To detect structural changes in plant stems, it is crucial to acquire complete ultrasonic echo RF signals. However, there is currently no dedicated ultrasonic RF detection equipment for plant stems, and some ultrasonic acquisition equipment has limited memory capacity that cannot store a complete echo signal. To address this problem, this paper proposes a double-layer multiple-timing trigger method, which can store multiple trigger sampling memories to meet the sampling needs of different plant stems with different ultrasonic echo locations. The method was tested in experiments and found to be effective in acquiring complete ultrasonic RF echo signals for plant stems. This approach has practical significance for the ultrasonic detection of plant stems.
