“…Controlled-source interferometric methods (Curtis et al, 2006;Bakulin and Calvert, 2006;Schuster, 2009) allow us to retrieve such a response without the need to know the medium parameters, but these methods require a receiver at the location of the virtual source in the subsurface and assume the medium is surrounded by sources. Our new approach removes the constraint of having a receiver at the virtual source location and is based on an extension of the 1D theory proposed earlier (Broggini et al, 2011(Broggini et al, , 2012bBroggini and Snieder, 2012) 1 . They show that, given the reflection response of a 1D layered medium, it is possible to reconstruct the response to a virtual source inside the medium, without having a receiver at the virtual source location and without knowing the medium.…”
