Abstract
A method for seismic exploration using a full waveform inversion, FWI, the method including receiving an initial velocity model V of the subsurface, receiving recorded data d related to the subsurface, generating synthetic data u related to the subsurface, using the initial velocity model V and a source signature of a source S, transforming the recorded data d and the synthetic data u, with a complex wavelet transform, into complex wavelet transformed recorded data d' and complex wavelet transformed synthetic data u′, respectively, updating the initial velocity model V using the FWI to generate an updated velocity model, based on a cost function J which depends on the complex wavelet transformed recorded data d′ and the complex wavelet transformed synthetic data u′, and generating an image of a surveyed subsurface formation.
