Iterative deconvolution and receiver-function estimation

Juan Pablo Ligorría and Charles J. Ammon

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Saint Louis University, 3507 Laclede Ave., St. Louis, Missouri, 63013

Abstract

We describe and apply an iterative, time-domain deconvolution approach to receiver-function estimation and illustrate the reliability and advantages of the technique using synthetic- and observation-based examples. The iterative technique is commonly used in earthquake time-function studies and offers several advantages in receiver-function analysis such as intuitively stripping the largest receiver-function arrivals from the observed seismograms first and then the details; long-period stability by a priori constructing the deconvolution as a sum of Gaussian pulses; and easy generalization to allow multiwaveform deconvolution for a single receiver-function estimate.
