Abstract

A method of measuring the size distribution of moving particles within a scattering medium includes a step of directing a beam of light into the scattering medium. The frequency of the scattered light is compared to nonscattered light emitted from the scattering medium and results in the generation of a first signal having a magnitude which is indicative of the difference in frequency between the scattered light and the nonscattered light. A second signal is generated having a magnitude which varies with frequency on a linear scale. The frequency scale of the second signal is then translated to a logarithmic scale. Finally, the translated second signal is deconvolved to determine the size and distribution of moving particles within the scattering medium.
