    Abstract: A plurality of sensors and a controller are disposed in a marine seismic streamer. Each of the sensors comprises an enclosure having two opposing interior walls, first and second piezoelectric elements disposed on the opposing interior walls, a third piezoelectric element disposed on a flexible substrate within the enclosure between the opposing interior walls, a pressure signal output node and an acceleration signal output node disposed on the exterior surface of the enclosure. A combined pressure signal derived from the pressure signal output nodes of the plural sensors is coupled to a pressure signal input of the controller. A combined acceleration signal derived from the acceleration signal output nodes of the plural sensors is coupled to an acceleration signal input of the controller. The streamer may be towed, and the combined pressure and acceleration signals may be recorded in a computer-readable medium.

    Abstract: Seismic pressure and particle motion measurement can include simultaneously determining a first voltage signal and a second voltage signal from each one of a plurality of sensors located in a streamer using triple piezoelectric structures. The first voltage signal can represent pressure of a respective one of the plurality of sensors, and the second voltage signal can represent acceleration of a respective one of the plurality of sensors. Vertical components of the acceleration can be determined based on the simultaneous determination, and noise associated with the sensor can be reduced based on the first voltage signal, the second voltage signal, and the vertical components.
