Simultaneous source separation: A prediction-subtraction approach
Simon Spitz, Gary J. Hampson, Antonio Pica · 2008
The acquisition of n-shots, more or less simultaneously, increases acquisition efficiency and collects a wider range of information for imaging and reservoir characterisation. Its success relies critically on the ability to separate n-shots from one recording. Stefani et al (2007) showed that while some datasets may be easily separated, others are more difficult. Using the more difficult data example from Stefani et al (loc.cit.), we show that a PEF-based adaptive subtraction (Spitz, 2007) of the estimated wavefield due to a secondary source provides an effective separation of the sources.
