Separating a wavefield by propagation direction
Determining the propagation direction of waves in a wavefield is important in several seismic imaging techniques and applications. This can be achieved using the Poynting vector method, but it performs poorly when waves overlap, returning incorrect wave amplitude and direction. An alternative, the local slowness method, is capable of separating overlapping waves, but suffers from low angular re...
متن کاملBorn Inversion by Wavefield Backpropagation
The inverse scattering problem for an acoustic medium is formulated by using the variable background Born approximation. A constant density acoustic medium is probed by a wide-band point source, and the scattered field is observed along a curved receiver array located outside the region where the medium velocity is different from the assumed background velocity function. The solution that we pr...
متن کاملForward Scattering Series and Padé Approximants for Acoustic Wavefield Propagation in a Vertically Varying Medium
We present the application of the theory of Padé approximants to extending the perturbative solutions of acoustic wave equation for a three dimensional vertically varying medium with one interface. These type of solutions have limited convergence properties depending on either the degree of contrast between the actual and the reference medium or the angle of incidence of a plane wave component....
متن کاملWavefield extrapolation by nonstationary phase shift
The phase shift method of wavefield extrapolation applies a phase shift in the Fourier domain to deduce a scalar wavefield at one depth level given its value at another. The phase shift operator varies with frequency and wavenumber and assumes constant velocity across the extrapolation step. We use nonstationary filter theory to generalize this method to nonstationary phase shift (NSPS) which a...
متن کاملImaging overturning reflections by Riemannian Wavefield Extrapolation
Correctly propagating waves from overhanging reflectors is crucial for imaging in complex geology. This type of reflections are difficult or impossible to use in imaging using one-way downward continuation, because they violate an intrinsic assumption of this imaging method, i.e. vertical upward propagation of reflection data. Riemannian wavefield extrapolation is one of the techniques develope...
