Abstract We derive a one-way wave equation representation of the “free space” Green’s function for an inhomogeneous medium. Our representation results from an asymptotic expansion in inverse powers of the wavenumber. Our representation takes account of losses due to scattering in all directions, even though only one-way operators are used.

The paper by Ehinger and co‐authors deals with migration in complex media in which severe multi‐pathing may occur. I wholeheartedly agree with their remark that the use of complete Green's functions is preferred over approximate Green's functions containing first arrivals only.
