We study the wave equation on an unbounded network of $N, N∈\mathbb{N}^*$, finite strings and a semi-infinite one with a single vertex identified to 0. We consider continuity and dissipation conditions at the vertex and Dirichlet conditions at the extremities of the finite edges. The dissipation is given by a damping constant $α>0$ via the condition $\sum_{j = 0}^N\partial_xu_j(0, t) = α \partial_tu_0(0, t)$. We give a complete spectral description and we use it to study the energy decay of the solution. We prove that for $α\not = N+1$ we have an exponential decay of the energy and we give an explicit formula for the decay rate when the finite edges have the same length.

Keywords: Damping, network of strings, energy decay, resolvent, semigroup expansion.
