Abstract

The disclosed invention is a method of seismic exploration using vibratory sources activated by stationary, Gaussian codes. The method has the channel-capacity economy of sign-bit recording, at both the sources and receivers, without the sacrifice of any desired seismic information in the final processed records. Even the relative amplitudes between traces may be recovered in the method.
