Directivity

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001110

The directional dependence of the radiation pattern of a seismic source or the sensitivity pattern of a seismic receiver. It describes how the energy is emitted or received in different directions. Source directivity is a factor in seismic wave propagation and is considered during seismic survey design and processing.
