The inverse scattering series inverts for medium properties from only the measured
wavefield and information about a chosen reference medium. Motivated by the need to …

The objective of seismic depth imaging is to produce a spatially accurate map of the
reflectivity below the Earth's surface. Current methods for performing depth imaging require …

The inverse scattering series holds the promise of precise reflector location (imaging) and
target identification (inversion proper) in multiple dimensions and in the absence of …

Our ability to image targets beneath complex overburdens is compromised by our ability,
under these circumstances, to find the precise velocity model with which to downward …

The inverse scattering series (ISS) is a comprehensive multidimensional theory for
processing and inverting seismic reflection data, that may be task-separated such that …

Depth imaging of seismic reflection data plays an fimportant role in discovering oil and gas
reservoirs as well as in characterizing and defining the extent of previously discovered …

The inverse scattering series (ISS) has proven, and continues to prove, to be a highly
effective formalism for the separate and isolated accomplishment of several key tasks of …

Most present day seismic migration schemes determine only the zero-offset reflection
coefficient for each grid point (depth point) in the subsurface. In matrix notation, the zero …

Extracting information from seismic data requires knowledge of seismic wave propagation
and reflection. The commonly used method involves solving linearly for a reflectivity at every …

Summary The" Virtual Reflector"(VR) method makes it possible to create new seismic
signals by processing real seismic traces produced by impulsive sources. Under proper …
