We will describe a simple model of bistatic seismic imaging in which the sound source and receiver are at different locations. We analyze the microlocal properties of the reconstruction operator under the assumption of constant wave speed and without multiple reflections. We show that one common data acquisition method is better than another one commonly used. This suggests that the same data acquisition could be better for models that include multiple reflections and variable sound speed.
