摘要：
An ultrasound probe includes a plurality of transducer elements configured to transmit ultrasound waves to an object and receive ultrasound echo signals corresponding to the transmitted ultrasound waves from the object, wherein the plurality of transducer elements are classified to be included in a plurality of first sub-arrays, a plurality of first analog beamformers configured to generate first synthesized signals by performing first beamforming on each of the ultrasound echo signals received by the plurality of transducer elements included in each of the plurality of the first sub-arrays, and a second analog beamformer configured to generate a second synthesized signal by performing second beamforming on the first synthesized signals generated by the plurality of first analog beamformers.
