This paper discusses the influence of the anisotropy parameters on elliptical-polarization of the inhomogenously refracted P-wave induced at VTI-media interface. For this refracted P-wave, we have derived, the equations of the elliptical-polarization trajectory. Following the elliptical-polarization trajectory, we calculated the effects of the rock anisotropic-parameters on the polarization state, with a Poincaré-sphere-like representation, for several varying media parameters. It is noted that the size, shape and initial phase angle of the elliptical-polarization trajectory are all depending the anisotropy media, as well as on the incident-angle. We expect that the findings from this paper would be applied to practical applications of seismic exploration.
