Extended pseudo-screen migration with multiple reference velocities

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

The pseudo-screen propagator is a kind of one-way wave propagator based on the local Born approximation. The propagator becomes unreliable when the velocity perturbation is large. We develop an extended pseudo-screen propagator by introducing different reference velocities in different regions of a medium to ensure the condition of small perturbation. Exploding reflector data for a 2D slice of the SEG/EAEG 3D salt model is generated by a finite-difference scheme to test the feasibility of the method. The migration result demonstrates that the method can handle severe lateral velocity variations and provides high quality images of complex structures.
