The paper concerns the determination of \(C(x)\) in the one-dimensional wave equation \(u_{tt}=u_{xx}/c^ 2(x)\) under the initial condition \(u|_{t<0}=0\) and boundary condition \(u_ x(0,t)=H(t)\), and analogous problems in the Lamé equation and Helmholtz equation. Considering an isotropic layered medium in the half-space the coefficient \(c\) can assumed to be piecewise constant. The additional information is the knowledge of \(\int^ \infty_{-\infty}u_ t(0,t) e^{-i \omega t}dt\), \(\omega\) from a finite interval.
