Abstract

Method for correcting seismic simulations, RTM, and FWI for temporal dispersion due to temporal finite difference methods in which time derivatives are approximated to a specified order of approximation. Computer-simulated seismic data () are transformed from time domain to frequency domain (), and then resampled using a mapping relationship that maps, in the frequency domain, to a frequency at which the time derivative exhibits no temporal dispersion (), or to a frequency at which the time derivative exhibits a specified different order of temporal dispersion. Alternatively, measured seismic data from a field survey () may have temporal dispersion of a given order introduced, by a similar technique, to match the order of approximation used to generate simulated data which are to be compared to the measured data.
