Abstract

Summary

We propose a new parametrization for pre-stack Least Square Reverse Time Migration (LSRTM) based on amplitude variation along redundancy axis. Contrary to conventional methods which in each shot is inverted independently from others, our formulation constrains the inverted shot-images such that amplitude variation of each imaging point along redundancy axis is parameterized based on orthogonal bases. This results in a robust subsurface imaging algorithm which is insensitive to erroneous migration velocity model and returns shot-images free from migration artifacts (such as migration smiles and artifacts from strong velocity contrasts). An application on Sigsbee synthetic model demonstrates the potential of proposed approach.
