Separation and imaging of seismic diffractions using plane-wave decomposition
We use the simulated plane wave section method to separate specular reflections and diffraction events. We show that plane wave sections naturally separate specular and diffracted events and allow us to use plane-wave distruction filters to suppress specular events resulting in plane-wave sections of diffractions. A synthetic example demonstrates the effectiveness of our method in imaging fault...
متن کاملPath - integral seismic imaging
A B S T R A C T A new type of seismic imaging, based on Feynman path integrals for waveform modelling , is capable of producing accurate subsurface images without any need for a reference velocity model. Instead of the usual optimization for traveltime curves with maximal signal semblance, a weighted summation over all representative curves avoids the need for velocity analysis, with its common...
متن کاملPost-stack velocity analysis by separation and imaging of seismic diffractions
Small geological features manifest themselves in seismic data in the form of diffracted waves, which are fundamentally different from seismic reflections. Using two field data examples and one synthetic example, we demonstrate the possibility of separating seismic diffractions in the data and imaging them with optimally chosen migration velocities. Our criterion for separating reflection and di...
متن کاملEuler Summation Formula for Path Integrals
We present and comment on some details of a new analytical method for systematic improvement of the convergence of path integrals of a generic N -fold discretized theory. The new methods represents a Euler summation formula for path integrals. Keeping the first p terms in this formula improves convergence of path integrals to the continuum limit to 1/N. We have given explicit calculations up to...
متن کاملFrame-based Gaussian Beam Summation and Seismic Head Waves
Abstract. In this paper, a two-parameter discrete Gaussian beam summation is described and then applied to SH seismic waves in a layer over a half space. For this case the exact solution for the wide-angle reflection and head wave is known by the summation of plane waves or from the modified-Cagniard method. Using Gaussian beam summations over a single angle parameter, the wide-angle reflection...
