AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, the controlled source excitation system is affected by factors such as nonlinearity, plate deflection, and the coupling effect of the weight, plate, and earth, which cause distortion of the force signal transmitted to the underground controlled source. Traditional forward modeling techniques fail to effectively consider harmonic interference, resulting in inconsistencies in frequency, amplitude, and phase.

Method used

By obtaining force signals containing harmonic interference of various orders, the propagation of force signals in the medium is simulated using the acoustic wave equation. Absorption boundary conditions are set, the influence of boundary reflection waves is ignored, and the receiving record is simulated. Finally, controllable source seismic data is obtained by cross-correlation between the force signal and the receiving record.

Benefits of technology

It improves the accuracy of forward modeling of controlled source data, generates more realistic underground force signals and reception records, enhances the simulation accuracy of the excitation and reception ends, and obtains forward modeling results that are closer to real controlled source seismic data.
