Seismic military sensors are required to be robust, reliable, compact, and easy to install and operate to be effective in the battlefield environment. Three types of sensor technologies were addressed that provide improved design and novel signal processing techniques: (a) a wavelength scanning, pulsed-laser-based demodulation system; (b) digital lock-in amplifier and field-programmable gate array (techniques) for weak signal detection and processing; and (c) improved seismic sensitivity based on carbon fiber optic composite cantilever and fiber-Bragg-grating (FBG).
