“…One particular technique for wave modeling is the one-way wave equation which is often used since it requires only one boundary condition, as it is a first-order evolution equation. In the case that the background data is smooth, it also provides a way to propagate in a predetermined direction ( [26]). Our background data involves generalized functions and due to the lack of an available theory connecting propagation of singularities with a generalized Hamiltonian flow we need a substitute.…”

We give a factorization procedure for a strictly hyperbolic partial differential operator of second order with logarithmic slow scale coefficients. From this we can microlocally diagonalize the full wave operator which results in a coupled system of two first-order pseudodifferential equations in a microlocal sense. Under the assumption that the full wave equation is microlocal regular in a fixed domain of the phase space, we can approximate the problem by two one-way wave equations where a dissipative term is added to suppress singularities outside the given domain. We obtain well-posedness of the corresponding Cauchy problem for the approximated one-way wave equation with a dissipative term. Contents 1. Basic notions 1 2. Pseudodifferential calculus 3 3.
