Seismic communication data processing based on compressed sensing algorithm

Abstract

AbstractGeophysical prospecting signals encompass subsurface structural information and incorporate textual messages generated in accordance with a specific pattern. These signals can be employed in places without radio access to ensure public and worker safety. Therefore, the use of seismic signals to transmit information through the earth has attracted the attention of researchers in the last decade. Presently, achievements in seismic communication are mainly in the coding, generation, and propagation of seismic signals. Little work has been done on methods to convert seismic signals generated by vibroseis sources into text and broadcast them vocally. Therefore, we built a seismic communication system with 6‐bit code using the American Standard Code for Information Interchange. To better recommend the seismic communication system scheme, the origin, state and principles of seismic communication system are illustrated in detail. Then, a seismic transmitting system is devised with a 500 N vibroseis source, which compiles seismic signals through amplitude modulation. After seismic signals propagate through the earth, they are received by geophones and recorded in seismographs. Through data acquisition based on a compression algorithm, seismic signals are converted into text and voice signals, which significantly reduces the storage and transmission of seismic data.
