JOINT ESTIMATION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC EARTH RESPONSES AND AMBIENT NOISE.

摘要

A method and system for estimation of electromagnetic earth responses in a marine electromagnetic survey. A method may comprise estimating initial values of the electromagnetic earth responses and ambient noise applicable to the marine electromagnetic survey; and processing electromagnetic data based on the initial values of the electromagnetic earth responses and the ambient noise to obtain a joint estimation of updated values of the electromagnetic earth responses and the ambient noise, wherein the electromagnetic data was acquired with one or more electromagnetic sensors, wherein the electromagnetic data contains measurements of an electromagnetic field.
