Abstract

Embodiments disclosed herein include components, devices, systems, and operations and functions for generating a seismic profile. An optical signal is generated in an optical signal medium disposed in proximity to a formation. A seismic source induces seismic signals within the formation. A backscatter response corresponding to the seismic signals from the optical signal medium is detected and quadrature modulated to generate a quadrature trace. A seismic response is generated by determining phase differences in the backscatter response based on the quadrature modulated backscatter response. Portions of the seismic response above or below a response threshold are removed to generate a threshold seismic response. The threshold seismic response is correlated with at least one of the seismic signals to generate a correlated seismic response.
