A 2-D numerical model of human skull with virtual sources at the focusing targets is established. The time reversal process is simulated with finite difference time domain method, and the effectiveness of focusing with time reversal method is studied. The numerical simulation results show that time reversal based on virtual sources can be used to control the focus of the ultrasound through the skull, with better precision than using traditional phase-control focusing method.
