Abstract
One‐dimensional electromagnetic and elastic inverse problems are formulated for media with discontinuous material properties. In addition, an impedence mismatch between source and medium is allowed. The measured data for either problem is shown to generate a reflection kernel which is used in the solution of the inverse problem. The solution algorithm itself is a time domain technique which is a special case of previously obtained results for absorbing media.Keywords
