Estimating Phase Velocity and Attenuation of Guided Waves in Acoustic Logging Data

Phase velocity and attenuation of guided waves have been estimated from multireceiver, full waveform, acoustic logging data using the extended Prony's method. Since a formation affects velocity and attenuation, estimating these quantities is important in evaluating the formation properties....
