Two-pass PSPI

As an alternative to downward continuation and interpolation of the source and receiver at the same time, we can also finish the prestack slant stack migration with

PSPI by splitting into two pass. Its implementation is illustrated in the steps shown in Figure 2. The U1S and U2S are the wavefields extrapolated by v1 and v2 separately for the source. After the interpolation, we get US. Then wavefields are downward continued separately for the receiver by v1 and v2. By interpolating the wavefield between U1(S+G) and U2(S+G), we can complete the whole wave extrapolation.
