A method for characterizing a suspension with particles floating therein, which method comprises the steps of generating an acoustic actuation signal and registering an acoustic reflected signal. Further, a first dataset is calculated on the basis of the reflected signal, the dataset containing information which represents an autocorrelation function as a function of time of the reflected signal. Thereupon, first datasets are combined into a second, cumulated dataset, which represents a sum of the autocorrelation functions which correspond with the first datasets. Finally, a representation of a particle size distribution is determined by solving this representation from an expression for the second, cumulated dataset in terms of the representation of a particle size distribution.
