By using the quantization rule based on the WKB asymptotic method, we present an integral equation to infer the form of the acoustic potential of a fixed ℓ as a function of the acoustic length. Since we analyze the acoustic potential itself by taking account of some factors other than the sound velocity and we can analyze the radial modes by this scheme as well as nonradial modes, this method improves the accuracy and effectiveness of the inverse problem to infer the internal structure of the Sun, in particular, the deep interior of the Sun.
