Based on the array gain index, two classic system mismatches, the direction of arrival （DOA） mismatch and the mismatches arising from array disturbance, are studied, respectively. To obtain the effective methods for compensating for the system mismatches, we analyze the performance of the improved LC-GSC with the diagonal loading and additional constraints （such as the directional constraints and derivative constraints）. The computer simulations show that the techniques of diagonal loading and additional constraints can effectively compensate for the system mismatches. The loss of array gains can be controlled within 3 dB in the presence of 20% of array disturbances or DOA mismatch when the signal-to-noise ratio is less than 10 dB. The analysis illustrates that the proposed compensation methods are valid and feasible.展开更多

An adaptive beamforming with generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) design methodology is utilized here as a general form of linearly constrained adaptive beamforming structure. It consists of a fixed beamformer, and a signal-blocking matrix in front of an unconstrained adaptive beamformer.Considerationf of the complexity of the geometry for 3D seismic survey, the 3D beamforming with GSC technique is developed with two key points: (1) sorting along azimuth sections to simplify the relationship between traveltime and offset from 3D to 2D, and (2) dynamic binning scheme to avoid the possible poor folding in some azimuth sections. Both simulation result and real data example show that the newly developed 3D beamforming with GSC yields more credible results at a relative low cost, sufficient stability and good resolution.展开更多
