Abstract
An RF pulse for an NMR pulse sequence is designed in the NMR system using an inverse SLR transformation method. The polynomials required for the SLR transformation are calculated using a weighted least mean squares ("WLMS") process in which an initial weighting function is employed along with the desired pulse profile that is input by the NMR system operator. The operator can also specify the phase profile as an input to the WLMS process.
