Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) at least for an acoustic temperature measurement in a gaseous medium (M) passing a medium channel (110) by means of runtime measurement of an acoustic pulse (AP) running through the gaseous medium (M) from at least a first transmitter arrangement (TA1) to at least a first receiver arrangement (RA1), the first transmitter arrangement (TA1) comprising a sound pulse generator (2) for the generating the acoustic pulse (AP), which is connected by a first acoustic channel (3) to a transmitter (4) which transmits the acoustic pulse (AP) into the medium (M), the first acoustic channel (3) being of acoustically dispersive design, and, the first receiver arrangement (RA1) comprising a receiver (5) for receiving the acoustic pulse (AP) after it has passed through the medium (M) and for transmitting it via a second acoustic channel (6) to a first microphone (7), preferably a piezoelectric microphone (7), for detecting the acoustic pulse (AP), the first acoustic channel (3) being curv
