Abstract: This paper is concerned with a direct sampling method for imaging the support of a frequency-dependent source term embedded in a homogeneous and isotropic medium. The source term is given by the Fourier transform of a time-dependent source whose radiating period in the time domain is known. The time-dependent source is supposed to be stationary in the sense that its compact support does not vary along the time variable. Via a multi-frequency direct sampling method, we show that the smallest strip containing the source support and perpendicular to the observation direction can be recovered from far-field patterns at a fixed observation angle. With multiple but sparse observation directions, the shape of the convex hull of the source support can be recovered. The frequency-domain analysis performed here can be used to handle inverse time-dependent source problems. Our algorithm has low computational overhead and is robust against noise. Numerical experiments in both two and three dimensions have proved our theoretical findings.
