Popis: For accurate evaluation of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment effect, it is of great importance to effectively judge whether the sampled signal is the HIFU echo signal or the noise signal. In this paper, a judgment method based on an auto-regressive (AR) model and spectrum information entropy is proposed. In total, 188 groups of data are obtained while the HIFU source is on or off through experiments, and these sampled signals are judged by this method. The judgment results of this method are compared with empirical judgments. It is found that when the segment number for the power spectrum estimated by AR model is 14 to 17, the judgment results of this method have a higher consistency with empirical judgments, and Accuracy, Sensitivity and Specificity all have good values. Moreover, after comparing and analyzing this method with the classic power spectrum estimation method, it is found that the recognition rate of the two sampled signals of this method is higher than that of the classic power spectrum estimation method. Therefore, this method can effectively judge the different types of sampled signals.
