This paper mainly describes the software design for a new type of ultrasound power detecting system based on instrument, in which data acquisition module, digital filtering module, data conversion module, zero setting and adjustment module. In the required accuracy, this system is more convenient and practical than the former power detecting system.

Optic fiber-grating sensor has many unique advantages and is one of the widely-applied sensors in recent years. The response of FBG sensor to ultrasound was investigated. Results showed that the sensor output intensity was basically linear to the acoustic power. So the optic fiber-grating sensor can be applied to noninvasive detection of internal ultrasound.

A data processing method for the sound power of the medical ultrasonic diagnostic equipment is introduced in this paper. The sound power for the transducer of a medical ultrasonic diagnostic equipment is measured for many times, and then the mathematical model based on the measurement data above is processed with Kalman filter.The output fluctuations for sound power of the equipment and its transducer as well as the measurement errors of sound power meter are eliminated to achieve the true value of sound power. Compared with other mean methods, the method above can improve the dicreteness of the measurements, and thus is worth being applied to processing other measured data.
