Laser-Doppler spectrum decomposition applied for estimation of speed distribution of particles moving in multiple scattering medium

Résumé

For the estimation of speed distribution of particles moving in optically turbid medium we show a generalized decomposition technique in which photons can be scattered more than once. We show theoretical background for decomposition in such a case. We apply decomposition method for analysis of laser-Doppler spectra obtained by Monte Carlo simulations. This analysis allows showing noise limits in which the technique can be effectively applied in analysis of measured spectra. We propose approximated scattering model based on assumption that for one photon consecutive Doppler scattering events occur on particles moving with the same speed and we show that this approximation does not influence significantly the uncertainty of the resulting speed distribution. Proposed decomposition procedure is validated in measurements on physical flow model. The decomposition procedure is also validated by analysis of spectra measured on physical phantom using laser-Doppler flowmeter (Oxford Optronix,UK). A diluted solution of milk was pumped through a tube fixed in an optically turbid material with speed varying from 0 mm/s to 4 mm/s. We observed a linear relation between actual speed of milk solution and speed estimated from results of spectra decomposition.
