However, there is strong nonlinearity in conventional RFWI because of the lack of low-frequency data and the complexity of the amplitude. The separation of phase and amplitude information makes RFWI more linear. Traditional phase-calculation methods face severe phase wrapping. To solve this problem, we propose a modified phase-calculation method that uses the phase-envelope data to obtain the pseudo phase information. Then, we establish a pseudophase-information-based objective function for RFWI, with the corresponding source and gradient terms. Numerical tests verify that the proposed calculation method using the phase-envelope data guarantees the stability and accuracy of the phase information and the convergence of the objective function. The application on a portion of the Sigsbee2A model and comparison with inversion results of the improved RFWI and conventional FWI methods verify that the pseudophase-based RFWI produces a highly accurate and efficient velocity model. Moreover, the proposed method is robust to noise and high frequency.展开更多

It is limited by many kinds of noises when the method applied to the real seismic data. Based on Huber function criterion,the objective function combinates the anti-noise of L1 norm and the stability of L2 norm in theory,the authors derive the gradient formula of the Huber function by using L-BFGS algorithm for FWI. The new method is proved by synthetic seismic data with the Gaussian noise and the impulse noise. Numerical test results show that L-BFGS algorithm is applied to the frequency domain FWI with the convergence speed and high calculation accuracy,and can effectively reduce computer memory usage; and the Huber function is more robust and stable than L2 norm even with the noises.展开更多

So we have developed a more robust elastic impedance inversion based on the Ll-norm misfit function, and the noise is assumed to be non-Gaussian. Meanwhile, some regularization methods including the sparse constraint regularization and elastic impedance point constraint regularization are incorporated to improve the ill-posed characteristics of the seismic inversion problem. Firstly, we create the Ll-norm misfit objective function of pre-stack inversion problem based on the Bayesian scheme within the sparse constraint regularization and elastic impedance point constraint regularization. And then, we obtain more robust elastic impedances of different angles which are less sensitive to outliers in seismic data by using the IRLS strategy. Finally, we extract the P-wave and S-wave velocity and density by using the more stable parameter extraction method. Tests on synthetic data show that the P-wave and S-wave velocity and density parameters are still estimated reasonable with moderate noise. A test on the real data set shows that compared to the results of the classical elastic impedance inversion method, the estimated results using the proposed method can get better lateral continuity and more distinct show of the gas, verifying the feasibility and stability of the method.展开更多
