abstract A method for calculating interstation phase and group velocities and attenuation coefficients using a Wiener (least-squares) filtering technique is presented. The interstation Green9s (or transfer) function is estimated from surface wave data from two stations laying along the same great circle path. The estimate is obtained from a Wiener filter which is constructed to estimate the signal recorded at the station further from the source from the signal recorded at the nearer station. The interstation group velocity is obtained by applying the multiple-filtering technique to the Green9s function, and the interstation phase velocity from the phase spectrum of the Green9s function. The amplitude spectrum of the Green9s function is used to calculate average attenuation between the two stations. Using synthetic seismograms contaminated by noise, it is shown that the Q values calculated from the Green9s function are significantly more stable and accurate than those obtained by taking spectral ratios. The method is particularly useful for paths involving short station separations and is applied to a surface wave path crossing the Iranian Plateau.
