The invention relates to a method for characterizing the structure of a medium in which the ultrasonic absorption coefficient of the medium is measured. In order to perform a spectral analysis of this absorption, the spectrum of the signal reflected after it has been transmitted is evaluated by means of an autocorrelation method. Application: medical practice.

Method for characterizing the structure of a medium and device for

The invention relates to a method of measuring the flow parameters of a fluid, and to a device utilizing this method, in which the autocorrelation function of the signal transmitted back by a particle of the fluid in motion is calculated. The mean speed and the variance of the flow are calculated by calculating the derivations of orders 1 and 2 of this autocorrelation function.
