Fourier analysis
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001546
A mathematical technique that decomposes a complex waveform or signal into its constituent sinusoidal components of different frequencies and amplitudes. This analysis transforms data from the time or spatial domain into the frequency domain, revealing the spectral content of the signal. It is a fundamental tool in seismic data processing for understanding and manipulating frequency characteristics.
