7 Neg FeedBack- Lippman method (1983) Lennartz (German company) 4.5 Hz to 1 Hz (1s), 0.2 Hz (5s); and 0.05 Hz (20s)

9 Volcan Array uses L15 If you want an affordable array start with an affordable sensor

10 Two Other Methods By inverse filtering electronically (analog) Roberts (Equivalent) Circuit Peter M. Roberts, October 1989, BSSA, Vol.79, No 4, pp.1607-1617 By Digitally Applying Transfer Fn. Deconvolve- Easiest way

12 Geophone Specifications: How to read a spec. sheet for 4.5 Hz, 10 Hz, responses High pass filters with a 40 dB/decade roll off 2 pole filter Measure ground velocity- Output ~40V/m/s How to measure Resistance: Rc coil resistance Rs shunt resistance Rt total resistance

13

14 Check polarity: Tilt test Tap test How to increase output signal: Put them in series Huddle Test: Determines if they all work the same If not, are they coupled properly?
