EFFICIENT IMPULSE REMOVAL IN FOURIER ANTI-LEAKAGE SEISMIC DATA INTERPOLATION

Methods and systems for improving the efficiency of ALFT are disclosed. The methods include obtaining a seismic dataset of a subterranean region, generating a window function, transforming the seismic dataset from a first domain to a second domain using a transform function, and transforming the window function from the first domain to the second domain using the transform function. The methods also include generating an input spectrum from the transformed seismic dataset, iteratively, or recursively, until a condition is met, for each slice, estimating a weight function, generating a weighted input spectrum, identifying a strongest attribute, determining an output spectrum based on the identified strongest attribute, and updating the input spectrum by removing the identified strongest attribute. The methods further include determining an output spectrum volume by combining the output spectrum for each slice, and generating an output seismic dataset using an inverse transform function and the output spectrum volume.
