Abstract
Sparsely spatially-sampled seismic time-scale trace gathers may be aliased for certain spatial and temporal frequencies. Aliasing may be avoided by application of a spatial interpolation scheme that uses the phase difference between the f-k phase spectra of the odd and the even traces to generate an interpolation operator in the f-k domain. The operator is multiplied point-by-point with the f-k transform of the original recorded trace gather. The resulting complex product is inverse transformed to the t-x domain whereupon the interpolated traces are interleaved between the original recorded traces to unwrap the aliased events.
