Abstract

With the increasing complexity of prospecting objectives,reverse time migration (RTM) has attracted more and more attention due to its outstanding imaging quality. RTM is based on two- way wave equation, so it can avoid the limits of angle in traditional one- way wave equation migration,image reverse branch, prism waves and multi- reflected wave precisely and obtain accurate dynamic information. However,the huge demands for storage and computation as well as low frequency noises restrict its wide application. The normalized cross- correlation ima- ging conditions based on wave field decomposition are derived from traditional cross- correlation imaging condition, and it can eliminate the low- frequency noises effectively and improve the imaging resolution. The practical proce- dure includes separating source and receiver wave field into one- way components respectively,and conducting cross- correlation imaging condition to the post- separated wave field. In this way,the resolution and precision of the imaging result will be promoted greatly.
