Abstract:There is large difference in near-surface velocity structure between the results of uphole survey and traditional ray-tracing algorithm in complex surface area, the main reason of which is lower precision of computed ray path. The traditional non-linear interpolation based on travel-time square although improved the computational precision of ray path and travel time, the algorithm is not suitable for the area the velocity violently changed. Based on analyzing the error source of this kind of non-linear interpolation, the paper improved the algorithm, using non-linear travel-time interpolation to compute ray path and travel time of seismic first breaks on the basis of fully considering various possible ray paths. The numeric computational results showed that the approach can use sparse computational grid in a precondition of guaranteeing computational precision of seismic travel times, improving efficiency of ray tracing and can suitable for various complex velocity structures.
