    Abstract: Exemplary apparatus and methods are provided for analyzing a medium. The apparatus, which may be a diffusing wave spectroscopy apparatus, comprises a first beam splitter for splitting a light from the laser light source into an excitation light and a reference light. The excitation light is directed on to a first portion of the medium and then multiply scattered light is collected at a second portion of the medium, the second portion being different from the first portion. The reference light, which has been attenuated, is combined with the multiply scattered light and either a power spectrum or an autocorrelation function is calculated.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates in general to Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy system for obtaining an autocorrelation function, and more particular, to a correlator and method for controlling a sampling time period and data length used for calculating an autocorrelation function. The correlator may include, a sampling gate circuit which is open during a variable time period and provides a data sample, a correlation circuit which calculates a correlation function from the data sample provided from the sampling gate circuit, and a parameter determining circuit which determines a sampling time period to be used by the sampling gate circuit based on the correlation function.
