Abstract

A method of seismic acquisition using a dispersed-source array (DSA) comprising two or more sources. The method comprises determining, for each of the two or more sources of the DSA, an individual spectrally-banded waveform. For each of the two or more sources, a primary waveform is formed by repeating the individual spectrally-banded waveform. For each of the two or more sources, a secondary waveform is formed based on the primary waveform. The secondary waveform is spectrally shifted relative to the primary waveform such that secondary waveforms of any two of the two or more sources are spectrally non-overlapping. The blending operator based on the secondary waveform of each of the two or more sources is provided to the DSA. The method also includes performing deblended-data reconstruction of acquired seismic data using one or more properties of the blending operators of the two or more sources.
