Аннотация:The comparative numerical investigation of iterative algorithm [1] and functional algorithm [2-3] for solving the acoustic tomography problem is considered. For the case of the two-dimensional scalar Helmholtz equation, the efficiency of the iterative algorithm for the reconstruction of medium-strength scatterers and the advantages of the functional-analytical approach for the reconstruction of strong scatterers with parameters typical for acoustic tomography problems are demonstrated. The reconstruction results obtained by using the considered iterative algorithm can be a basis for analyzing the possibilities and limitations of this approach in multi-channel acoustic inverse problems.1.
