Abstract
G040 SEPARATION OF PRIMARIES AND MULTIPLES BY NON-LINEAR ESTIMATION IN THE CURVELET DOMAIN Abstract FELIX J. HERRMANN 1 and ERIC VERSCHUUR 2 1 Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences University of British Columbia Canada 2 Faculty of Applied Sciences Delft University of Technology The Netherlands Predictive multiple suppression methods consist of two main steps: a prediction step in which multiples are predicted from the seismic data and a subtraction step in which the predicted multiples are matched with the true multiples in the data. The last step appears crucial in practice: an incorrect adaptive subtraction method will cause multiples to
