ABSTRACT:
A method of producing random sweeps for seismic vibrator sources is described which produces correlograms with reduced side lobe contamination. Digital random phase digital codes activate non-impulsive sources. Detected signals are processed using periodic sweep correlations. The method is especially useful in urban areas where permitting requirements limit the drive level and frequency range of a vibratory seismic source.
