Abstract
- Much work has been done on inverse scattering problems for one-dimensional acoustic media. Unfortunately, the linear method of the Gel’fand - Levitan integral equations is developed only for inversion from reflection data in case of negligible dissipative effects. On the contrary, measurement data, in geophysical prospecting particularly, are often influenced by these effects. The main result of this paper is a necessary and sufficient condition of solvability of the inverse dissipative scattering problem with data given on a finite time interval. We also consider a bilinear procedure for recovering the dissipation coefficient from the reflection data. The approach is based on a step-by-step split method for numerical solution of a system of the Gel’fand - Levitan integral equations under nonlocal boundary conditions. Besides, we develop a method of inversion of difference schemes for solving the inverse dissipative scattering problems.
