Abstract
Based on the theory of elastic wave, we derive the migration angle formula of P- and S-wave in the Gaussian beam migration and implement the ADCIGs (angle domain common imaging gathers) extraction for Gaussian beam of PP- and PS-wave firstly. Then, we derive the reflection tomography equations for elastic wave velocity analysis. They are used for the tomography velocity modeling base on the Gaussian beam ADCIGs. Making reflection tomography and depth migration into the same velocity modeling process, this method can not only use ADCIGs of elastic wave to update the velocities, but also can apply the migration results of tomography in each iteration as quality control, until the end of whole process in velocity modeling and finally we can get the prestack depth migration results after tomography. Synthetic and field examples validate the correctness and practicability of this method.
