A modification of the factorization method for scatterers with different physical properties

摘要

We study an inverse acoustic scattering problem by the factorization method when the unknown scatterer consists of two objects with different physical properties. Especially, we consider the following two cases: One is the case when each object has the different boundary condition, and the other one is when different penetrability. Our idea here is to modify the far-field operator depending on the cases to avoid unnecessary a priori assumptions.
