Title: Deconvolution

Book ·
OSTI ID:6306427

This book discusses about enormous development of methods and techniques in deconvolution of seismic data. It is not a critique of deconvolution's progress, but a necessary examination of how the problems were overcome and what questions may have been unaddressed. The author begins with the initial deconvolution problem and the original spiking deconvolution solution, and discusses the point-source and plane-wave convolutional models. He also examines minimum-phase, the relationship between deconvolution and prediction, and the extraction of unknown wavelets. Finally the implications on the interpretation of lithology are noted. It presents the following contents: preface - spiking deconvolution; the one-dimensional convolutional model; minimum phase and minimum delay; prediction and prediction-error filtering; signature deconvolution; extraction of an unknown wavelet; phase error and the interpretation of lithology; appendix.
