Original Abstract Submitted

A system, computer-readable storage medium and method of reflection seismic survey in a wireless seismic network within a survey area is described. The method includes detecting, in each of a plurality of wireless seismic sensor nodes, seismic reflection signals from a seismic energy source; recording, in each of a plurality of wireless geophones, detected seismic signals; transmitting, by the geophones, the recorded seismic signals as digital data, using a combination of Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), to a central data receiving device; changing the seismic energy source location for seismic reflection; and repeating the detecting, recording and transmitting a number of times for each change in seismic energy source.
