  • the embedding material 9 should have an acoustic impedance that is as similar as possible to the fluid 1 (here: blood) and should be as thin as possible, so that no additional reflections or diffractions of the sound impulse occur, unless this additional diffraction is desired.
  • the or each reflector 5 with acoustic impedance C 4 can be embedded in a silicone with acoustic impedance C 3 ' , where C 3' is similar to the acoustic impedance C 3 of blood.
  • the solution presented here enables one or more of the following advantages:
  • the speed of sound can be determined from the resulting pulse transit time and / or ramp runtime by the reflector.
