The removal of sinusoidal interference is an important step in seismic data processing, especially for data with low signal-to-noise ratios. The intermittent character of sinusoidal interference makes it challenging to identify and attenuate. To address this issue, we propose a method to accurately identify sinusoidal interference and rapidly estimate its frequencies. A spectrum-generation strategy is presented to generate an amplitude spectrum with noticeable sinusoidal interference. An initial estimate of the affected frequencies is found using a frequency-search technique based on the amplitude spectrum. The estimate is then refined by an iterative frequency estimation algorithm, which includes fast frequency estimation and normalized cross-correlation calculation. After modeling the noise using the precise frequency estimation, the sinusoidal interference in seismic data can then be suppressed by adaptively subtracting the estimated noise from the raw seismic data. The effectiveness of the proposed method in identifying sinusoidal interference is verified by testing it on synthetic and field data and by comparing the results with those from existing methods. Synthetic and real data examples indicate that the method is most applicable to land seismic data.

The eigenstructure-based coherence algorithms are robust to noise and able to produce enhanced coherence images. However, the original eigenstructure coherence algorithm does not implement dip scanning; therefore, it produces less satisfactory results in areas with strong structural dips. The supertrace technique also improves the coherence algorithms’ robustness by concatenating multiple seismic traces to form a supertrace. In addition, the supertrace data cube preserves the structural-dip information that is contained in the original seismic data cube; thus, dip scanning can be performed effectively using a number of adjacent supertraces. We combine the eigenstructure analysis and the dip-scanning supertrace technique to obtain a new coherence-estimation algorithm. Application to the real data set shows that the new algorithm provides good coherence estimates in areas with strong structural dips. Furthermore, the algorithm is computationally efficient because of the small covariance matrix [Formula: see text] used for the eigenstructure analysis.

An enhanced smoothed l0-norm algorithm for the passive phased array system, which uses the covariance matrix of the received signal, is proposed in this paper. The SL0 (smoothed l0-norm) algorithm is a fast compressive-sensing-based DOA (direction-of-arrival) estimation algorithm that uses a single snapshot from the received signal. In the conventional SL0 algorithm, there are limitations in the resolution and the DOA estimation performance, since a single sample is used. If multiple snapshots are used, the conventional SL0 algorithm can improve performance in terms of the DOA estimation. In this paper, a covariance-fitting-based SL0 algorithm is proposed to further reduce the number of optimization variables when using multiple snapshots of the received signal. A cost function and a new null-space projection term of the sparse recovery for the proposed scheme are presented. In order to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, we present the simulation results and the experimental results based on the measured data.

The high-precision roll attitude estimation of the decoupled canards relative to the projectile body based on the bipolar hall-effect sensors is proposed. Firstly, the basis engineering positioning method based on the edge detection is introduced. Secondly, the simplified dynamic relative roll model is established where the feature parameters are identified by fuzzy algorithms, while the high-precision real-time relative roll attitude estimation algorithm is proposed. Finally, the trajectory simulations and grounded experiments have been conducted to evaluate the advantages of the proposed method. The positioning error is compared with the engineering solution method, and it is proved that the proposed estimation method has the advantages of the high accuracy and good real-time performance.

In order to study the detection methods of weak transient electromagnetic radiation signals, a detection algorithm integrating generalized cross-correlation and chaotic sequence prediction is proposed in this paper. Based on the dual-antenna test and cross-correlation information estimation method, the detection of aperiodic weak discharge signals under low signal-to-noise ratio is transformed into the estimation of periodic delay parameters, and the noise is reduced at the same time. The feasibility of this method is verified by simulation and experimental analysis. The results show that under the condition of low signal-to-noise ratio, the integrated method can effectively suppress the influence of 10 noise disturbances. It has a high detection probability for weak transient electromagnetic radiation signals, and needs fewer pulse accumulation times, which improves the detection efficiency and is more suitable for long-distance detection of weak electromagnetic radiation sources.

The possibility of improving regularization/datuming of seismic data is investigated by treating wavefield extrapolation as an inversion problem. Weighted, damped least squares is then used to produce the regularized/datumed wavefield. Regularization/datuming is extremely costly because of computing the Hessian, so an efficient approximation is introduced. Approximation is achieved by computing a limited number of diagonals in the operators involved. Real and synthetic data examples demonstrate the utility of this approach. For synthetic data, regularization/datuming is demonstrated for large extrapolation distances using a highly irregular recording array. Without approximation, regularization/datuming returns a regularized wavefield with reduced operator artifacts when compared to a nonregularizing method such as generalized phase shift plus interpolation (PSPI). Approximate regularization/datuming returns a regularized wavefield for approximately two orders of magnitude less in cost; but it is dip limited, though in a controllable way, compared to the full method. The Foothills structural data set, a freely available data set from the Rocky Mountains of Canada, demonstrates application to real data. The data have highly irregular sampling along the shot coordinate, and they suffer from significant near-surface effects. Approximate regularization/datuming returns common receiver data that are superior in appearance compared to conventional datuming.
