Application of adaptive wavelet thresholding to recovery geoacoustic signal pulse waveforms

Recorded geoacoustic signals often contain noise and interference. Their appearance is caused by various reasons, e.g. of propagation environment heterogeneity, weather condition influence, human activity, etc. So, geoacoustic emission signals contain a persistent background noise that changes in intensity over time. This noise significantly distorts the geoacoustic pulse waveforms and thus complicates analysis of the signal characteristics. The article presents results of estimating the geoacoustic signal background noise. On the basis of these estimates, a method of adaptive wavelet thresholding is proposed to remove noise from the signal and recovery the single pulse waveforms. In conclusion, the results of a computational experiment are presented. They confirm effectiveness of using the chosen method for the geoacoustic signal preprocessing.
