F-32 ESTIMATION OF P-WAVE AND S-WAVE FOCUSING OPERATORS USING THE CFP TECHNOLOGY D.J. VERSCHUUR 1 P.L.A. WINTHAEGEN 2 and A.J. BERKHOUT 3 Abstract 1 The CFP-approach to seismic imagin is very suitable for the processing of converted waves. Using multicomponent receiver data it offers the possibility for estimation of P-wave and S-wave one-way propagation operators. Throughout this procedure the reflection and conversion points can be kept at the identical positions. Therefore many problems in traditional converted wave processing are avoided. Introduction Many converted wave processing techniques are based on the so-called "Common Conversion Point" sorting of converted wave data. In
