Abstract

In this paper, the property of Curvelet transforms for preconditioning the migration and normal operators is investigated. These operators belong to the class of Fourier integral operators and pseudo-differential operator, respectively. The effect of this pre-conditioner is shown in term of improvement of sparsity, convergence rate, number of iteration for the Krylov-subspace solver and clustering of singular(eigen) values. The migration operator, which we employed in this work is the common-offset Kirchoff-Born migration. \copyright2004 Society of Exploration Geophysicists
