We find a sufficient condition of hyperbolicity for a differential system governing the motion of a one-dimensional porous-medium, so ensuring the existence of a solution for the associated Cauchy problem. We study propagation of linear waves impacting at a pure-fluid/porous-medium interface and we deduce novel expressions for the reflection and transmission coefficients in terms of the spectral properties of the governing differential system. We show three-dimensional plots drawing reflection and transmission coefficients as functions of Biot's parameters. In such a way we propose an indirect method for measuring Biot's parameters when the measurement of the reflection and transmission coefficients associated to the traveling waves is possible.
