    摘要: A disclosed pressure-responsive sensor includes a flexible element contained within an enclosure and a membrane configured to exert an electrostatic force on the flexible element to cause the flexible element to respond to pressure variations on the membrane. A disclosed pressure-sensing method includes electrostatically coupling a membrane to a flexible element contained within an enclosure to transfer a pressure response of the membrane to the flexible element. Motion of the flexible element is converted into a pressure signal.

    摘要: A disclosed digital sensor includes a pair of piezoelectric sensors that respond to acceleration and pressure in opposite ways, a pair of digital transducer circuits each employing a quantized feedback path to obtain digital sensor signals for the piezoelectric sensors, and a combiner circuit that combines the digital sensor signals to produce a compensated digital output signal. The compensated digital output signal may be a pressure compensated acceleration signal, an acceleration compensated pressure signal, or both. Also disclosed is a signal detection method that includes configuring a pair of piezoelectric membranes in a piezoelectric sensor to respond to acceleration and pressure in opposite ways, and based on their responses, producing at least one of a digital pressure compensated acceleration signal and a digital acceleration compensated pressure signal. The digital signals may be produced in part by applying a quantized feedback signal to at least one of the piezoelectric membranes.

    摘要: A survey method includes towing one or more sources and one or more streamers behind a vessel to acquire geophysical survey data. Steering signals are determined for at least one of: the one or more sources, the one or more streamers, and the vessel. The steering signals minimize an error function having parameters that include a measure of a cross-line position error and a measure of data quality. The cross-line position error may be measured as an offset of the sources or the receivers from their desired paths, or in some embodiments as an offset between midpoints for base survey traces and subsequent survey traces. Some embodiments may employ a maximum spatial cross-correlation coefficient between a newly acquired trace and one or more base survey traces as a data quality measure, while others may employ a time shift, a phase rotation, or a normalized root mean square error. Data quality may indicate sensor noise levels.
