Understanding the Magnitudeof Tuning Effects
““The first side lobe as a fraction of the center lobe of a The first side lobe as a fraction of the center lobe of a zero-phase wavelet is the reciprocal of the octave zero-phase wavelet is the reciprocal of the octave bandwidthbandwidth.”.”
Good seismic data has 2.5 octaves, for a side lobe level of Good seismic data has 2.5 octaves, for a side lobe level of 40% relative to the center.40% relative to the center.
This “40% rule” means that 40% is a common increase in This “40% rule” means that 40% is a common increase in amplitude at tuning for zero phase wavelets, reflected from amplitude at tuning for zero phase wavelets, reflected from the top and base of a reservoir layer.the top and base of a reservoir layer.
Greater increases in amplitude must be explained Greater increases in amplitude must be explained otherwise.otherwise.
