For this experiment, we had to select a signal processing
application and collect the information related to it using published papers
and patents. We formed a group of three and the application we selected was
Seismic signal processing. The group members are as follows: Ankita Dhavale,
Kanchan Sawant, Nivedita Petkar.
I selected the the below mentioned paper and my review is as
follows:
IEEE paper review:
A geophysical survey collects data in the form of reflection
seismograms (also called seismic traces) which are received at the surface of
the ground due to sources (such as explosions, vibrations, thumping) activated
at the surface of the ground.
Seismic Signals are statistical in nature with non-stationary
character. A new technique signal processing called wavelet analysis has been
employed to obtain the better resolution for the detection of thin layer and to
provide improved data for stratigraphic interpretation. Wavelets are powerful
signal processing tools that have found applications in a broad spectrum of geophysical
signal processing and imaging. Compactly supported non orthogonal wavelets do
not have phase distortion problem and provide a better choice for seismic data
processing.
