Averaging the power spectra of several neighboring traces can reduce the sensitivity of single-channel spiking deconvolution to noise. A usual technique computes the arithmetic mean of the power spectra for traces belonging to a common-shot gather. The effect of the source is the common element in all the traces of the common-shot gather. Thus, the computed average power spectrum represents the source’s effect. As a result, a single deconvolution operator computed from the average power spectrum will remove the source’s effect.
