Example 1 (Seismic Analysis Code)

Examples to deconvolve the instrument response from raw data are below, using the Seismic Analysis Code (SAC, version sac-101.6a). 

 

1. A unit of output is 'm/s'

r $input
rtr
rmean
taper
TRANS FROM POLEZERO S $pzfile TO none FREQ 0.05 0.1 1.5 3.0
w vel.sac
q

 

2. A unit of output is 'm'

r $input
rtr
rmean
taper
TRANS FROM POLEZERO S $pzfile TO none FREQ 0.05 0.1 1.5 3.0
TRANS FROM VEL TO NONE
w disp.sac
q

 

3. A unit of output is 'm/s2'

r $input
rtr
rmean
taper
TRANS FROM POLEZERO S $pzfile TO none FREQ 0.05 0.1 1.5 3.0
TRANS FROM VEL TO ACC
w acc.sac
q

Note that the unit of the output is incoherent with the SAC header 'IDEP'.

 

Update notes

  • [1.03] StationXML file is removed. Zeros and poles were multiplied by a wrong factor, 2*pi. I am sorry for this confusion.
  • [1.02] Typo in station name of KS.HA2B is modified (KS.HA2B -> HA2B)
  • [1.01]
    • Files for the sensor JC-V100 are provided from Won-Young Kim (2 Dec 2021)
    • Station KS.HA2B is added
    • StationXML file is added (ksgn.xml) [removed at version 1.03]
  • [1.00] The files for the KG network are made based on the logs until 12 April 2019 (personal communication with the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources).
