Weak Signal Enhancement for Passive Seismic Data Reconstruction Based on Deep Learning

Abstract

In conventional passive seismic exploration, it is often necessary to make a long-period seismic record. On the one hand, the passive seismic records with long period allowed us to screen several good passive seismic records with long period for seismic interferometry reconstruction and perform piecewise stacking on them. On the other hand, a sufficiently long recording time can help us avoid noise interference generated by nonpassive sources during the recording process, such as animal activities, construction operations, industrial electrical interference, etc. Compared with the passive seismic records with short period, the passive seismic records with long period can obtain higher signal-to-noise ratio after seismic interferometry reconstruction. However, they also cause huge consumptions of manpower, material resources, and time. Based on this, this paper proposes a seismic interferometry reconstruction method using passive signals of short-period recordings. Based on deep learning technology, the effective information is extracted and enhanced, the strong coherent noise after reconstruction is suppressed and weakened, the SNR of reconstructed recording is improved, and the effective information is mined. It can effectively reduce the time of passive seismic recording required for acquisition and improve acquisition efficiency. In addition, it also has a certain monitoring effect on real-time changes in underground structures.
