IntroductionIntroduction
• Role of ray tracing in geophysics
• Practical requirements:
accuracy, speed, ray path,
reflection, multiples, 3D, amplitude.
• Matlab
Ray Tracing MethodsRay Tracing Methods
• Shortest path methods:
Fischer (1993), Moser (1991)
• Wave-equation-based:
Sava (2001)
This Ray TracerThis Ray Tracer
• Shortest path method:
Grid of velocity is finer than or
equal to the grid of ray path.
• Versatile: reflection & multiples
• Accurate
• Robust
ModelingModeling• Block model & grid model
StrategyStrategy• Fermat’s principle
• Huygen’s principle:
original source and secondary source
• Data structure: V(x,z), T(x,z), Ray(x,z,1:2)
• Flag(x,z): 0-unvisited; 1-visited; 2-decided
StepsSteps• Step 0: T(x0,z0)=0; Flag(x0,z0)=2;
Ray(x0,z0,1)=x0; Ray(x0,z0,2)=z0;
• Step 1: sub-ray tracing from the original source.
SearchSearch
• Step 2: all visited nodes record:
T(x,z) and Ray(x,z,1:2), Flag(x,z)=1.• Step 3: search nodes Flag(x,z)==1 & min(T(x,z)).• Step 4: decided node = next secondary source, as
original source, repeat from step 0, until all
interested nodes are decided.

Reflections and MultiplesReflections and Multiples
• Step 1: do one transmission ray tracing until all nodes on the reflector are decided.
• Step 2: keep these nodes and make them Flag=1, refresh all other nodes.
• Step 3: jump directly into step 3 in the transmission ray tracing loop.
So, 1 reflection ray tracing = 2 transmission ray tracing; 1 first order multiple ray tracing = 4 transmission ray tracing; 1 2nd order multiple ray tracing = 6 transmission ray tracing;

ConclusionConclusion
• Flexibility: ray path, reflections & multiples
• Speed: depends on sub ray tracing length
• Accuracy and robustness
• Applications: tomography and migration
• Extendable: C or Fortran
