The aim is to enhance the echoes produced by the interface between the first and second layers of a dome to obtain interface traces in echo pulse B-scan mode. This is useful information for the restorer before restoration of the dome paintings. Three optimum detectors are considered matched filter signal gating and prewhitened signal gating. Assumed models and practical limitations of the three optimum detectors are considered. The results obtained in the dome analysis show that prewhitened signal gating outperforms the other two optimum detectors. Copyright 2007 Luis Vergara et al.

INTRODUCTION In 1 the authors have considered the ultrasonic echo pulse technique to help in the analysis of a dome. The first four layers of the dome were respectively mortar 0.3 cm plaster 1.2 cm mortar 1.5 cm and bricks. The work presented in paper 1 was devoted to the problem of determining the state of adhesion of the interface between the third and fourth layers. The depth of such an interface 3 cm and the type of materials mortar-bricks allowed working with a transducer of 1 MHz so that grain noise due to reflections from the micro-grains of the involved materials is not present at .
