Abstract

There is provided a method of interpolating wave signals, particularly seismic signals acquired through a seismic survey, using the steps of obtaining time series of measured wave signals; and selecting iteratively basis functions to represent said measured signals with a basis function being fully defined by n parameters, wherein in each iteration one or more basis functions are combined with the selected basis functions such that the residual between the measured signals and a representation of the measured signal by the combined basis functions is minimized at the locations of the measurement at each iteration.
