Abstract

P-SV wave requires accurate conversion point to get common conversion point collection. However, there is no method to get exact conversion point under rugged surface. This paper established an iterative equation to get the exact conversion point under the rugged surface, and proved effectiveness and accuracy of the iterative equation.
