SEISMIC EXPLORATION USING NON-IMPULSIVE VIBRATORY SOURCES ACTIVATED BY STATIONARY, GAUSSIAN CODES

摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURESEISMIC EXPLORATION USING NON-IMPULSIVEVIBRATORY SOURCES ACTIVATED BY STATIONARY,GAUSSIAN CODESThe disclosed invention is a method of seismicexploration using non-impulsive vibratory sources activated bystationary, Gaussian codes. The method has the channel-capacity economy of sign-bit recording and the distortion-freequality of full-waveform seismic records, even through zeromemory, non-linear representations ("ZNL's") are employedeither during the collection or the processing steps thatproduce such final records. As a result, stratigraphic faciescan be both economically and surprisingly indicated.
