However, simple structure information is insufficient for petroleum exploration which also needs amplitude information proportional to reflection coefficients. In recent years, pre-stack depth migration algorithms which preserve amplitudes and based on the one- way wave equation have been developed. Using the method in the shot domain requires a deconvolution imaging condition which produces some instability in areas with complicated structure and dramatic lateral variation in velocity. Depth migration with preserved amplitude based on the angle domain can overcome the instability of the one-way wave migration imaging condition with preserved amplitude. It can also offer provide velocity analysis in the angle domain of common imaging point gathers. In this paper, based on the foundation of the one-way wave continuation operator with preserved amplitude, we realized the preserved amplitude prestack depth migration in the angle domain. Models and real data validate the accuracy of the method.展开更多

Based on wave theory, the equation of the lateral wave-field stacking for generalized-offset Fresnel zones is derived. For zero and nonzero offsets, the lateral stacking amplitude of diffraction bins of different sizes is analyzed by referring to the shape of the Fresnel zones of different order. The results suggest the following. First, the contribution of diffraction bins to wave- field stacking is related to the offset, surface relief, interface dip, the depth of the shot point to the reflection interface, the observational geometry, and the size of the interference stacking region. Second, the first-order Fresnel zone is the main constructive interference, and its contribution to the reflection amplitude is slightly smaller than half the contribution of all Fresnel zones. Finally, when the size of the diffraction bin is smaller than the first- order Fresnel zone, the larger the size of the diffraction bin, the larger is the amplitude of the receiver, even in the nonzero offset-case.展开更多
