SUADDNOISE - add noise to traces suaddnoise stdout sn=20 noise=gauss seed=from_clock Required parameters: if any of f=f1,f2,... and amp=a1,a2,... are specified by the user and if dt is not set in header, then dt is mandatory Optional parameters: sn=20 signal to noise ratio noise=gauss noise probability distribution =flat for uniform; default Gaussian seed=from_clock random number seed (integer) f=f1,f2,... array of filter frequencies (as in sufilter) amps=a1,a2,... array of filter amplitudes dt= (from header) time sampling interval (sec) verbose=0 =1 for echoing useful information tmpdir= if non-empty, use the value as a directory path prefix for storing temporary files; else if the the CWP_TMPDIR environment variable is set use its value for the path; else use tmpfile() Notes: Output = Signal + scale * Noise scale = (1/sn) * (absmax_signal/sqrt(2))/sqrt(energy_per_sample) If the signal is already band-limited, f=f1,f2,... and amps=a1,a2,... can be used, as in sufilter, to bandlimit the noise traces to match the signal band prior to computing the scale defined above. Examples of noise bandlimiting: low freqency: suaddnoise < data f=40,50 amps=1,0 | ... high freqency: suaddnoise < data f=40,50 amps=0,1 | ... near monochromatic: suaddnoise < data f=30,40,50 amps=0,1,0 | ... with a notch: suaddnoise < data f=30,40,50 amps=1,0,1 | ... bandlimited: suaddnoise < data f=20,30,40,50 amps=0,1,1,0 | ...
