Abstract:FBS-3A feedback broadband seismometer has been widely utilized in observation networks up to now. Therefore, it is very important and practically meaningful for the application of this kind of sensor to fulfill some relative research work about its transfer function and for the analysis to the data recorded and the further development of the seismometer. In this paper, from the viewpoint of achieving its working principle, method of systematic analysis is applied to deduce the transfer functions, including both the transfer function for calibration and that for measurement. Moreover, on the basis of that, the distribution of its zeros and poles in a complex frequency domain is analyzed, which provides a convincing evidence to simplify this seismometer system from a high-order one to a two-order one. And the emulation of the frequency characteristics of FBS-3A is presented in this paper. On the whole, the aim of this article is to do some theoretical work about the earthquake observation sensor, and also to introduce the method of making systematic analysis in a complex frequency domain to the research and the development of the seismometers.
