“…To separate wave modes correctly in the recorded data, various approaches have been employed, the prior polarization rotation (Greenhalgh et al, 1990;Cho and Spencer, 1992), domain transform (F-K or τ-p) methods (Tatham and Goolsbee, 1984;Dankbaar, 1985Dankbaar, , 1987, wave-equation based methods (Dellinger and Etgen, 1990;Sun et al, 2004;Huang and Milkereit, 2007), and statistical methods (Wang et al, 2018;Gao et al, 2013;van Der Baan, 2006;Muijs et al, 2004). However, the whole process of wave separation is time-consuming.…”
