Abstract
Based on wave-interferometry principles, we describe a procedure to synthesize monostatic and multioffset borehole radar reflection data from cross-hole radar tomography data. The procedure is equivalent to placing multiple transmitting sources in the receiving hole and conducting wide-angle reflection and refraction surveys. The procedure is illustrated using transmission and reflection data generated by numerical simulation of electromagnetic waves for a simple fracture model. The numerically simulated reflection data compare favorably with the reflection data synthesized using the wave-interferometry method. An experimental test of this procedure is also applied to a piece of field data from a pair of boreholes in crystalline igneous bedrock. The results demonstrate the potential of practical use of wave-interferometry methods for extracting reflection information from cross-hole radar tomography data.
