Abstract
A method for operating an ultrasonic flowmeter includes: capturing at least one first ringing signal of a first ultrasonic transducer of the ultrasonic flowmeter, and detecting a first ringing debugging signal based on the at least one captured first ringing signal; emitting a first measurement signal into a medium through the first ultrasonic transducer, resulting in a first ringing measurement signal in the first ultrasonic transducer; receiving a measurement signal as a first received signal by the first ultrasonic transducer, wherein the first received signal and the first ringing measurement signal are superimposed to form a first superimposed signal; determining a first correction signal by subtracting the first ringing debugging signal from the first superposition signal; and determining the flow velocity or flow rate of the medium based on the first correction signal.
