Iterative Inverse Scattering Method for the Removal of Scattered Surface Waves

摘要

An iterative method is presented for removing near-surface scattered noise from seismic data. It is applied to large-scale models and appears to be rather robust, except for the fact that a rather accurate knowledge of the Rayleigh-wave velocity is required. The formulation of the method, however, offers possibilities for estimating this velocity with sufficient accuracy.
