Angle-gathers by Fourier Transform
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present a method for computing angle-domain common-image gathers from wave-equation depth-migrated seismic images. We show that the method amounts to a radial-trace transform in the Fourier domain and that it is equivalent to a slant stack in the space domain. We obtain the angle-gathers using a stretch technique that enables us to impose smoothness through regularization. Several examples show that our method is accurate, fast, robust, easy to implement and that it can be used for real 3-D prestack data in applications related to velocity analysis and amplitude-versus angle (AVA) analysis.

Angle-domain common-image gathers by wavefield continuation methods
Migration in the angle domain creates seismic images for different reflection angles. We present a method for computing angle-domain common-image gathers from seismic images obtained by depth migration using wavefield continuation. Our method operates on prestack migrated images and produces the output as a function of the reflection angle, not as a function of offset ray parameter as in other ...
متن کامل3D angle gathers from reverse time migration
Common-image gathers are an important output of prestack depth migration. They provide information needed for velocity model building and amplitude and phase information for subsurface attribute interpretation. Conventionally, common-image gathers are computed using Kirchhoff migration on commonoffset/azimuth data volumes. When geologic structures are complex and strong contrasts exist in the v...
متن کاملWave-equation common-angle gathers for converted waves
Seismic images obtained by multicomponent wave-equation migration can be decomposed into angle-gathers with a transformation that generalizes the equivalent construction for primary waves. A particularly simple formulation is to use all three components of the offset vector separating sources and receivers at image points. Using full vector offsets, multicomponent angle-gathers are built using ...
متن کامل3D angle decomposition for elastic reverse time migration
We propose 3D angle decomposition methods from elastic reverse time migration using timeand space-lag common image point gathers, time-lag common image gathers, and space-lag common image gathers computed by elastic wavefield migration. We compute time-lag common image gathers at multiple contiguous locations, instead of isolated positions as is commonly done with common image gathers. Then, we...
متن کاملFractional Fourier Transform Based OFDMA for Doubly Dispersive Channels
The performance of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) system degrades significantly in doubly dispersive channels. This is due to the fact that exponential sub-carriers do not match the singular functions of this type of channels. To solve this problem, we develop a system whose sub-carriers are chirp functions. This is equivalent to exploiting Fractional Fourier Transform (F...
