7.1 Geophones
7.1.1 L-28LB
Figure 1: Picture of the L-28LB Geophone
| Natural Frequency [Hz] | 4.5 |
| Weight [g] | 140 |
| Sensitivity [V/(m/s)] | 31.3 |
We define the parameters of the geophone and we plot its bode plot (figure 2).
w0 = 4.5*2*pi; % [rad/s] ksi = 0.38; G0 = 31.3; % [V/(m/s)] G = G0*(s/w0)^2/((s/w0)^2 + 2*ksi*(s/w0) + 1);

7.1.2 L-4C
Figure 3: Picture of the L-4C Geophone
| Natural Frequency [Hz] | 1 |
| Weight [g] | 2150 |
| Sensitivity [V/(m/s)] | 276.8 |
The transfer function from the velocity and the measured voltage is defined below.
Its bode plot is shown on figure 4.
w0 = 2*pi; % [rad/s] ksi = 0.28; G0 = 276.8; % [V/(m/s)] G = G0*(s/w0)^2/((s/w0)^2 + 2*ksi*(s/w0) + 1);
