摘要
Airgun arrays are widely used in marine seismic exploration because signatures excited by airgun arrays have high energy and high-peak bubble ratio, whereas the considerable length and width of the array and ghost reflections make the airgun array signature directional. As a result, the relation of the reflection amplitude with the incident and azimuth angles is variable. This means that the directivity of the airgun array results in a nonstationary wavelet and distorts the relation of the amplitude variation with the incident and azimuth angles. To remove the directivity effect, we propose a nonstationary inversion-based directional deconvolution. At fi rst, the signature as a function of take-off angle and azimuth angle is calculated using the spatial configuration of the airgun array and the near-field signatures. Then, based on the velocity model, the time-variant take-off angles are estimated and directional fi lters are designed using the take-off angles. Finally, the directivity-dependent signatures are shaped to the signature right below the airgun array using nonstationary inversion in the directional deconvolution.
