Abstract

The objective of this invention is to provide a method for estimating, in the frequency domain, deconvolution operators for removing spurious resonant coupling responses from the cross-line and the vertical seismic signal components in OBC surveys. The purpose is to balance the spectral response of the respective signal component in amplitude and phase in a manner consistent with the field geometry.
