Abstract
A survey is given of the inverse acoustic scattering problem of determining
the support of an inhomogeneous obstacle from a knowledge of the incident
and scattered tune-harmonic fields where the obstacle is situated in a homo
geneous or piecewise homogeneous medium. Numerical examples are given for t
he determination of the support of buried obstacles in the lower half-space
from near field data on a bounded region in the upper half-space.
