The time harmonic sound field for the center frequency is suitable to optimize broadband arrays in respect to its geometrical parameters (aperture, middle distance, curvature) and to optimize the controlling mode. The time harmonic sound field predicts the extension and possible splitting of the main structure, location and extension of the focus, the incident angle and the existence of grating lobes. Keywords-ultrasonic phased arrays; calculation of time harmonic and transient field; plane and…
