This paper follows previous work (Shtivelman, 1984) in which a hybrid method for wave‐field computation was developed. The method combines analytical and numerical techniques and is based upon separation of the processes of wave scattering and wave propagation. The method is further developed and improved; particularly, it is generalized for the case of an inhomogeneous medium above scattering objects (provided the inhomogeneity is weak, i.e., the effects of scattering can be neglected) and is represented by a simpler and more convenient form. Several numerical examples illustrating application of the method to the problems of two‐dimensional acoustic modeling are considered.
