3.9 SEISMIC INTERFERENCE                         199





















































           FIG. 3.29  Spectral analysis of a shot with seismic interference. (A) Filtered shot gather together with interference and pri-
           mary reflections, (B) f-k filtered shot to indicate only the interference signal, and (C) primary reflections after removal of the
           interference with an appropriate f-k filter. Mean amplitude and f-k spectra of each gather are given in the top and bottom
           panels, respectively.

            (iii) The noise source is in front of the        reflection hyperbolas and the interference
                receiving streamer (Fig. 3.31C). The         signal have the same dip on the shot
                interference signal extends from near to     gathers. In this case, it may not be
                far offset traces. This is the worst situation  possible to filter out the interference
                in a removal process because the             completely.
