Abstract

Temporal profiles of transmitted and backscattered pulses from a three layered random medium were measured. Using wave-diffusion telegraphic equation and best fitting algorithms, the properties of the middle layer of slightly different optical parameters from the surrounding media were determined. The thickness and the transport mean free path were found using the transmitted pulses while the location and the aborption length of the layer were found using the backscattered pulses.
