A Radon-transform-based formula for reconstructing acoustic sources from the scattered fields
Xiaodong Liu, Jing Wang
Abstract
We propose a novel indicator function for reconstructing acoustic sources from multi-frequency near-field measurements. The theoretical basis is established by a formula relating the scattered field to the source function through the Radon transform. Such a representation enables us to recover the source function directly. The efficiency and robustness of the novel indicator function are verified by several numerical examples.
