Multipathing, reciprocal traveltime fields and raylets
S U M M A R Y A new theory for the calculation of later seismic arrivals in heterogeneous media is presented. We introduce the concept of a ‘raylet’, which is a segment of a later arriving ray path between source and receiver defined by joint properties of forward and reciprocal traveltime fields. We show that all rays between a single source and receiver in arbitrary heterogeneous media can be...
متن کاملSelf-reciprocal Polynomials Over Finite Fields
The reciprocal f ∗(x) of a polynomial f(x) of degree n is defined by f ∗(x) = xf(1/x). A polynomial is called self-reciprocal if it coincides with its reciprocal. The aim of this paper is threefold: first we want to call attention to the fact that the product of all self-reciprocal irreducible monic (srim) polynomials of a fixed degree has structural properties which are very similar to those o...
متن کاملAutomatic traveltime picking using the instantaneous traveltime a
Event picking is used in many steps of seismic processing. We present an automatic event picking method that is based on a new attribute of seismic signals, the instantaneous traveltime. The calculation of the instantaneous traveltime consists of two separate but interrelated stages. First, a trace is mapped onto the time-frequency domain. Then the time-frequency representation is mapped back o...
متن کاملWave-equation traveltime inversion
This paper presents a new traveltime inversion method based on the wave equation. In this new method, designated as wave-equation traveltime inversion (WT), seismograms are computed by any full-wave forward modeling method (we use a finitedifference method). The velocity model is perturbed until the traveltimes from the synthetic seismograms are best fitted to the observed traveltimes in a leas...
متن کاملMultiscale traveltime tomography
Nonuniqueness in traveltime tomographic velocity analysis is largely the result of insufficiency in model parameterization. Traditional tomography parameterizes the model with nonoverlapping cells. Such single-scale tomography (SST) from inverting traveltimes only may produce underdeterminacy at places of insufficient ray coverage. To cope with the poor and uneven ray coverage, a multiscale tom...
