Abstract
A conventional CMP gather is Radon transformed from t-x space to the .tau.-p domain. The Radon-transformed data are windowed or zoned into a plurality of data sets, each having an common independent range of selected characteristics. All except one data set are muted. The zero ordinate of the p-axis is shifted to become centered through the contents of the retained data set which is then inverse-transformed back to t-x space. The process is repeated for each of the remaining windowed data sets. The processed windowed data sets are summed.
