    摘要: The method for estimating the drift over time of a physical operating parameter of a clock for dating seismic data samples associated with a seismic data collection node involves measuring (10) at least one quantity associated with the clock, at predetermined instants or during predetermined time periods, and applying (12), to this quantity, a predetermined non-linear law of variation of this quantity that depends on the values collected during the measurement step (10), so as to obtain an estimation of the drift over time of the physical operating parameter.

    摘要: A method is provided for accurate time measurement. Time is first measured with a first oscillator. At designated intervals, a second oscillator is activated for a period of time based on the first oscillator. The second oscillator is more accurate than the first oscillator. Pulses are then counted from the second oscillator during the period of time. The second oscillator is then turned off after the period of time. The count from the second oscillator is used as a new measurement of the period of time of the first oscillator.

    摘要: An oscillating means having an oscillator outputs a reference clock, and a frequency-dividing means sequentially frequency-dividing the reference clock into a half frequency. A temperature correction data creating means detects a temperature, calculates logical delaying/advancing data for a temperature change, and outputs the logical delaying/advancing data in every predetermined period. A temperature correction data input means receives the delaying/advancing data outputted by the temperature correction data creating means and outputs the logical delaying/advancing data to a logical delaying/advancing means. The logical delaying/advancing means operates a state of the frequency-dividing means in every predetermined period on the basis of the set logical delaying/advancing data to control the period of the frequency-divided output signal of the frequency-dividing means so as to be coincident with a desired period. Owing to this temperature correction data input means, it becomes possible to separate the temperature correction data creating means conventionally incorporated.
