A 3-D inverse medium problem in the frequency domain is considered. Another name for this problem is Coefficient Inverse Problem. The goal is to reconstruct spatially distributed dielectric constants from scattering data. Potential applications are in detection and identification of explosive-like targets. A single incident plane wave and multiple frequencies are used. A new numerical method is proposed. A theorem is proved, which claims that a small neigborhood of the exact solution of that problem is reached by this method without any advanced knowledge of that neighborhood. We call this property of that numerical method "global convergence". Results of numerical experiments for the case of the backscattering data are presented.
