Reconstructing a space-dependent source term via the quasi-reversibility method
The aim of this paper is to solve an important inverse source problem which arises from the well-known inverse scattering problem. We propose to truncate the Fourier series of the solution to the governing equation with respect to a special basis of L2. By this, we obtain a system of linear elliptic equations. Solutions to this system are the Fourier coefficients of the solution to the governing equation. After computing these Fourier coefficients, we can directly find the desired source function. Numerical examples are presented.
