A signal processing method for circular arrays
Keyword(s):
The theory of spectral representations of stationary random processes can be a useful tool in signal processing. Using this theory, it is possible to derive simple methods of estimating the phase velocity of surface waves from observations made with a circular array. The methods are totally nondirectional, thus allowing the use of microseisms for exploration seismology. Furthermore, the methods can be extended to yield directional information about both correlated and uncorrelated signals.
