Abstract

A method for attenuating coherent and incoherent noise in seismic signal data is provided. Seismic signal data is transformed from a time-space domain using a Radon-transform domain. In the Radon-transform domain, coherent noise is attenuated by muting and incoherent noise is attenuated by diversity stacking. Data remaining in the Radon-transform domain in transformed back to the time-space domain by an inverse Radon transform.
