Abstract
Models for acoustic reflections from multilayered media, such as marine sediments or geological strata, are important for interpretive work on actual reflection data. We present here a new formulation for the ideal reflection process for multiple layers and unequal travel times. Our formulation uses a superior index notation, and gives a very tractable and compact model structure. We generalise the reflection model to accommodate frequency dependent attenuation in the layers.Keywords
