We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of dissipative wave equations with space–time‐dependent potential. When the potential is only time‐dependent, Fourier analysis is a useful tool to derive sharp decay estimates for solutions. When the potential is only space‐dependent, a powerful technique has been developed by Todorova and Yordanov to capture the exact decay of solutions. The presence of a space–time‐dependent potential, as in our case, requires modifications of this technique. We find the energy decay and decay of the L 2 norm of solutions in the case of space–time‐dependent potential. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
