I would like to convert a received ultrasound signal to a value that is proportional to the amplitude (signal strength) of the received signal.
The transmitter will be either 237 KHz (or maybe 40 KHz) pulse. Of course, the received signal will be a 237 KHz (or 40 KHz) signal but increasing in strength until it reaches a peak value. I don't know enough about circuits, but one thought is to convert the signal to an analog signal that follows the peak values and use an A/D converter to read my values. Any suggestions?
