ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is provided for determining a propagation time delay. The apparatus includes at least one source adapted to generate a plurality of positioning signals, at least one receiver deployed along a seismic sensing cable, wherein the receiver is adapted to receive the plurality of positioning signals from the at least one source, and a plurality of computed Doppler-shifted positioning signals corresponding to the plurality of positioning signals. The apparatus also includes a signal processing unit adapted to determine a propagation time delay between the source and the receiver using the generated positioning signals, the received positioning signals, and the plurality of computed Doppler shifted positioning signals.
