| Abstract | We develop an inversion workflow for tilted transverse isotropic (TTI) media using a purely acoustic formulation of the wave equation. The anisotropic modeling kernel is used for the forward modeling operator, as well as for the adjoint Jacobian to back propagate the data residual, thus providing the true gradient of the FWI objective function. We apply this workflow on a synthetic FWI example and perform RTM on a field data set. Furthermore, we discuss alternatives for the pseudo-spectral Laplacian operator of the current implementation. |
