Novel Statistical Approach to Blind Recovery of Earth Signals and Source Wavelet

P224 Novel statistical approach to Blind Recovery of Earth Signals and Source Wavelet Summary 1 The main goal of seismic signal processing is to separate the observed signal as far as possible into its constituent components of wavelet earth response and noise. A lack of a priori information about these components results in the current seismic signal processing sequence that is complicated and may rely on inappropriate assumptions about the input wavelet. This paper presents a new fast and simple blind method for recovering the earth response wavelet and noise from the observed signal. The main advantage of this new
