The invention discloses a multi-component seismic data
least squares reverse time migration imaging method and
system. The method conducts modification on the basis of the elastic wave
reverse time migration method, directly with the multi-component data as input, under the framework of inversion, employs different wave-field propagators and new imaging conditions at different steps of migration so as to achieve multi-component seismic
data migration imaging based on inversion. According to the invention, the thought of inversion is introduced to elastic wave
reverse time migration, compared with regular elastic wave reverse time migration, a
prestack depth migration profile having high precision,
high resolution, high
signal to
noise ratio, and amplitude preservation can be acquired. The method can effectively overcome lineups destructive interference caused by
transverse wave polarity-reversal, and can effectively eliminate migration illusion caused by
crosstalk among longitudinal and transverse
waves while longitudinal and
transverse wave vector characteristics, amplitude and phase characteristics are maintained in entirety. The method increases imaging precision, is applicable to multi-component seismic
data migration of all kinds of complex medium models, has clear imaging profiles, and is easy for later-stage geology interpretation.
