Streamer depth versus vessel and seismic interference noise

Broadband Seismic Methods for Towed-streamer Acquisition

Seismic noise emission induced by seismic waves

The in situ rock undergoing different kinds of deformation accumulates elastic energy that can be released spontaneously o r under artificial effect. Triggering of energy can also be performed by means of a dynamic excitation caused by elastic waves. W e carried out special field investigations with the use of seismic vibrators (Vibroseis-like sources) to study the effect of the energy release ...

An efficient 4D processing flow for variable-depth streamer data

Variable-depth streamer acquisition is now widely used, achieving a bandwidth of more than 6 octaves (2.5 to 200 Hz) and excellent lateral resolution and providing improved impedance and reservoir analysis. This acquisition and processing method is based on towing the streamer deep, using a variable-depth profile optimized to ensure receiver notch diversity at the imaging stage and a deghosting...

Seismic Noise Trapping in Firn

A comparative analysis was performed on datasets from two Global Seismographic Network (GSN) stations near the South Pole, Antarctica. The results of this analysis are provided and show that there is significant reduction of the background seismic noise generated by the activities at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station as a function of distance and depth. Data gathered from site selection wor...

Capacity Bounds and High-SNR Capacity of the Additive Exponential Noise Channel With Additive Exponential Interference

Communication in the presence of a priori known interference at the encoder has gained great interest because of its many practical applications. In this paper, additive exponential noise channel with additive exponential interference (AENC-AEI) known non-causally at the transmitter is introduced as a new variant of such communication scenarios‎. First, it is shown that the additive Gaussian ch...
