4 Full Waveform Inversion The Basic Idea Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) Velocity inversion is based on a very simple idea. Find that Earth model M that best explains the recorded data D Synthetic data U generated over M should match D as closely as possible Minimize an objective function D U where is the L 1 norm least squares norm least squares norm of the phase difference between D and U least squares norm of the envelope difference between D and U least squares norm of the logarithmic difference between D and U Bee Bednar (Panorama Technologies) Seismic Modeling, Migration and Velocity Inversion May 18, / 30
5 Full Waveform Inversion The Basic Idea The Inversion Scheme In the classical least squares case FWI is an iterative scheme where At each iteration R n 1 M n = M n 1 R n 1 (D U) Is a very fancy imaging condition Produces an incremental M Is almost always some form of reverse time migration But it need not be Bee Bednar (Panorama Technologies) Seismic Modeling, Migration and Velocity Inversion May 18, / 30
6 Full Waveform Inversion The Basic Idea Full Waveform Inversion For a given model For each observed shot, synthesize data to match the real acquisition Use a full two-way modeling algorithm Save a trace at each model node Compute the difference between the shot and the real data These data are called the residuals Back propagated the residuals into the model Use a full two-way modeling algorithm Save a trace at each model node Preform a shot-profile migration of the residuals The shot is the forward-propagated synthetic The receiver traces are the back-propagated residuals Divide the back by the forward propagated traces Normalize the image above by the velocity squared Add the normalized image to the current model Repeat the previous steps until the norm of the model difference is small FWI is really a iterative migration scheme Bee Bednar (Panorama Technologies) Seismic Modeling, Migration and Velocity Inversion May 18, / 30

27 FWI The inversion process We started with a MVA model Virtually no reflections Reasonably accurate shallow First iteration essentially muted the first breaks First iteration is exactly equivalent to migrating with our initial model Lailly: Migration is the first step in inversion We calculated a new velocity model from residuals and a synthetic shot We shot a new synthetic data set We imaged the residuals We repeated the exercise until model differences became negligible In this case the model is as good as can be expected This kind of inversion is theoretically valid for all Earth Models.
