Estimating TOF from ultrasound signal over bare steel sample of 5 mm thickness

These data have been obtained using the CEIT ultrasound testbed exciting a PZT piezoelectric sensor with a +/-15 volts pulse located over a 5 mm bare steel sample. The testbed receives the ultrasound response and estimates the TOF measuring the distance between two consecutive echoes. The aim is to develop an embedded system to measure the loss of thickness produced by corrosion.
