1278628 Seismic prospecting SOC NATIONALE DES PETROLES D'AQUITAINE 20 June 1969 [21 June 1968] 31263/69 Headnig H4D In a seismic reflection prospecting system in which reflection signals are cross-correlated with a representation of the transmitted signal to determine travel times, the amplitudes of secondary maxima of the correlation functions are kept small (to avoid confusion with weak main maxima) by making the transmitted signal a series of discrete acoustic impulses of substantially constant amplitude, the number of impulses in the series and the intervals of time separating them being so selected that the autocorrelation function of the transmitted signal has secondary maxima with amplitudes less than a given small fraction of its main maximum, and the representation is a time function with a value " 1 " at each instant when an impulse is transmitted and a substantially zero value during the intervening periods. For marine prospecting a seismic source (gasgun or sparker) and hydrophone streamer are towed by a ship. A signal comprising constant height pulses randomly spaced is played back from a magnetic tape and controls actuation of the source to produce a series of, e.g. 400 acoustic impulses over a period of 48 seconds. The interval between impulses may be 20 + 2x milliseconds, where x is selected randomly in the range 1 to 100. The control signal and received reflection signals are fed to a multichannel recorder for subsequent cross-correlation.
