Instrument Response
2017-04-18 17:46:59
Hi,
I have downloaded the waveform and Response poles and
zeros in SAC format from JWEED. I removed the instrument response using
command " transfer from polezero subtype ./resp.pz to vel freqlimits 0.001
0.002 10 20" in SAC. Initially in sac header I have IDEP= unknown and after
removing response it changed to IDEP= VELOCITY (NM/SEC).
I have instrument properties in resp.pz file INPUT UNIT :
M, OUTPUT UNIT: COUNTS, INSTGAIN : 1.500000e+03 (M/S),SENSITIVITY :
2.516610e+09 (M/S).
So after removing instrument response , Output Should be in M/S ie.,
IDEP=Velocity(M/S) because we have count, sensitivity Instgain in meters
and seconds. But after removing reponse I am getting DEP= VELOCITY (NM/SEC).
So help me to
understand it .
