This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for the modified Helmholtz equation in an infinite strip domain 0 < x <= 1, y is an element of R. The Cauchy data at x = 0 is given and the solution is then sought for the interval 0 < x <= 1. This problem is highly ill-posed and the solution (if it exists) does not depend continuously on the given data. In this paper, we propose a fourth-order modified method to solve the Cauchy problem. Convergence estimates are presented under the suitable choices of regularization parameters and the a priori assumption on the bounds of the exact solution. Numerical implementation is considered and the numerical examples show that our proposed method is effective and stable.
