Abstract
The phase Doppler measurement relations are derived based on geometric optics, assuming point detectors and an arbitrary system geometry. A simple calculation method is given for determining the necessary conversion factors in any particular geometry, assuming light scattering by either simple reflection or refraction. The regions of the particle surface participating in the scattering are identified as part of the analysis.
