Waveforms of the Vibration Velocity and the Current of a Piezoelectric Transducer in the Transient State

In this paper the relationship between the vibration velocity waveform and the current waveform of a piezoelectric transducer in the transient state is presented. Using the AC burst voltage source, the waveforms of the vibration velocity and the current at high vibration amplitude levels are observed and the relationship between them is investigated. The effects of the burst driving conditions on the results of the transient measurement are discussed based on the electrical transient responses. It has been shown that the results are not affected by the electrical driving conditions. The beat in the burst driving state is also investigated using these results.
