Abstract In order to recover unknown space-dependent function G(x) or unknown time-dependent function H(t) in the wave source F(x; t) = G(x)H(t), we develop a technique of homogenized function and differencing equations, which can significantly reduce the difficulty in the inverse wave source recovery problem, only needing to solve a few equations in the problem domain, since the initial condition/ boundary conditions and a supplementary final time condition are satisfied automatically. As a consequence, the eigenfunctions are used to expand the trial solutions, and then a small scale linear system is solved to determine the expansion More >
