Abstract: (i) For the matrix Schr"{o}dinger operator on the half line, it is shown that if the potential exponentially decreases fast enough then only the scattering matrix uniquely determines the self-adjoint potential and the boundary condition. (ii) For the matrix Schr"{o}dinger operator on the full line, it is shown that if the potential exponentially decreases fast enough then the scattering matrix (or equivalently, the transmission coefficient and reflection coefficient) uniquely determine the potential. If the potential vanishes on $(-infty,0)$ then only the left reflection coefficient uniquely determine the potential.
