11 Data vector d(q, Y) = {τ 0,Q (Y), p 1,Q (Y), p 2,Q (Y), W 11,Q (Y), W 12,Q (Y), W 22,Q (Y)} Q = P, S 1, S 2 Y: CMP location
12 Plane dipping reflector ψ φ
13 Data vector for single TOR layer p 1 /p 2 = tan ψ for all three modes only 4 out of 6 in (p 1,Q, p 2,Q ) are independent only one τ 0,Q is independent (Grechka et al., 2005)

16 Additional assumption: Dip plane coincides with symmetry plane [x 1, x 3 ] β 1 = ψ W ij,q has two independent elements x 3 x 1 x 2
17 Analytic solution strike line: V (1) nmo,p = V P δ (1) V (1) nmo,s1 = V S σ (1) V (1) nmo,s2 = V S2 (V S2 = V S0 ) 1 + 2γ (1) = V S γ (2)

19 P-waves only V (1) nmo,p = V P δ (1) V (2) nmo,p = V P δ (2) /cos φ model vector: V P0, δ (1,2), φ, D data vector: τ 0, p 1, V (1,2) nmo,p need one constraint (e.g., vertical velocity)
20 P-wave inversion (known vertical velocity)
21 Arbitrary dip-plane orientation x 3 x 1 x 2

26 Inversion with noise (1% for τ 0, 5% for p 1,2, 3% for V nmo )
27 Inversion with noise (1% for τ 0, 5% for p 1,2, 3% for V nmo ) (vertical velocity known)
28 Summary extension of multicomponent SVT to tilted ORTH media single layer: - generally underdetermined - feasible if reflector coincides with symmetry plane - P-waves: need additional constraints
