ABSTRACT:
A beam former method and an apparatus therefor in an ultrasonic imaging system, in which switching of delay elements is performed by means of delay switches in a section in which no ultrasonic wave transmission/reception is performed and switching noise generated in this section is stored as a noise signal into a memory. The stored noise signal is subtracted from a reception signal which is obtained through ultrasonic wave transmission/reception and which contains switching noise superimposed thereon to thereby obtain a reception signal from which the noise has been eliminated.
