Ultrasonic flaw detection and imaging through reverberant layers are challenging problems owing to the layer-induced reverberations and front surface reflections.

These undesired signals present a strong clutter and mask the flaw echoes.

In this paper, a subspace-based approach is developed for removing, or significantly reducing, the unwanted reverberations, enabling proper flaw detection and imaging.

The technique utilizes a set of independent clutter-only reference measurements of the material through the layer.

If these measurements are not available, array measurements of the material with flaws are used instead.

The clutter, due to its high strength relative to the flaw reflections, forms a subspace spanned by the eigenvectors corresponding to the dominant eigenvalues of the data covariance matrix.

The clutter subspace is estimated and removed using orthogonal subspace projection.

The clutter usually occupies multidimension subspace that is dependent on the level of coupling, material inhomogeneity, surface roughness, and the sampling rate of the measurements.

When the clutter-only reference is not available, information theoretic techniques are used to estimate the dimension of the clutter subspace so that clutter signals are sufficiently suppressed without distorting the flaw signals.

The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated using simulations and real measurement results.
