Abstract

A system and method for generating simultaneous plural frequencies in seismic exploration is disclosed. The method includes configuring a seismic source to emit a seismic signal that includes multiple frequencies emitted substantially simultaneously. The method additionally includes identifying a plurality of frequencies to include in the seismic signal and determining an amplitude of the seismic signal. The method further includes obtaining a seismic dataset corresponding to the seismic signal emitted by the seismic source and creating a seismic image of a subsurface of a seismic survey area.
