ABSTRACT:
A receiver consistent deconvolution operator models the damped oscillatory wavetrain that is related to geophone coupling to the water bottom. The operator is a best-fitting function that endeavors to describe the difference in coupling response between a well-coupled in-line geophone relative to an imperfectly-coupled cross-line geophone. The operator is applied to the cross-line signals to compensate the signals for the distortion due to imperfect cross-line ground coupling.
