Convexification for the inversion of a time dependent wave front in a heterogeneous medium
Abstract
An inverse scattering problem for the 3D acoustic equation in time domain is considered. The unknown spatially distributed speed of sound is the subject of the solution of this problem. A single location of the point source is used. Using a Carleman Weight Function, a globally strictly convex cost functional is constructed. A new Carleman estimate is proven. Global convergence of the gradient projection method is proven. Numerical experiments are conducted.
