Teleseismic receiver function using stacking and smoothing of multi seismic-records at a single station

摘要

Abstract Receiver functions (RFs) obtained using teleseismic wave records at a seismic station and synthetic seismograms indicate that RF with a single teleseismic wave record is related to the selection of record section and to the calculating parameters of the RF. The scatter noise contained in the seismogram also affects the quality of RF. A new method for calculating receiver function, stacking and smoothing multi-seismic records in a single station, is presented in this paper. The RF results using some records and some synthetic seismograms with different noises indicate prominent mantle discontinuity and thus prove that the method is effective and satisfied.
