Abstract
Three dimensional (3D) Reverse time migration (RTM), as an indispensable imaging technique, has been widely applied to the observed seismic data imaging. However, the RTM of Ground Penetrating radar (GPR) is usually implemented in its two-dimensional (2D) from. This paper proposes a 3D RTM algorithm on common offset GPR data for void imaging. In this algorithm, the 3D finite difference time domain (FDTD) method is applied to calculate the backward extrapolation of electromagnetic fields. And the time zero imaging condition is applied to obtain the final RTM results. Comparisons of the imaging results of 3D and 2D RTM demonstrated that the 3D RTM imaging results were superior to those of 2D RTM. And 3D spatial distribution of Void can be imaged by the proposed 3D RTM algorithm with high accuracy, which can help the subsequent interpretation of GPR profile.
