DETERMINING A CHARACTERISTIC OF A SEISMIC SENSING MODULE USING A PROCESSOR IN THE SEISMIC SENSING MODULE

摘要

A seismic sensing module comprises a seismic sensing element and a processor configured to generate a test signal applied to the seismic sensing element, receive a response from the seismic sensing element, and determine a characteristic of the seismic sensing module according to the response. The characteristic is selected from a polarity of the seismic sensing element, a non-linear property of the seismic sensing module, and a temperature-dependent transfer function of the seismic sensing module.
