  • Method and apparatus for improved seismic prospecting
    Patent number: 5193077
    Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for conducting seismic prospecting is provided wherein more accurate estimates of the source wavelet can be achieved. Receivers (202) detect pulses at vertically offset locations. The pulses are converted to digital signals in a signal processor (212) and stored on a recorder (210). A processor (108) operates on the stored signals to produce an output wavelet A'(107 ,.theta.) in accord with the equation .intg.(P.G.sub.n -G.P.sub.n)dx.sub.g.
