    The design idea,structure design and selection of digital filter chip of different seismic instrument manufacturers are unique, so the filtering characteristics and technical performance is different.With the wide application of nodes instrument,the hybrid acquisition between cable instrument and nodes,different nodes instruments become more common.In order to guarantee the data consistency of hybrid acquisition,we need to consider the filtering method,the pre-amp gain matching,the selection of low cut frequency and the method of DC offset removal,and choose the appropriate parameter to eliminate the impact as far as possible.We should focus on the first sample handling method of different instruments also,the best solution is to optimize the control timing sequence of source excitation system and ensure the start time on the edge of whole seconds(or 4,8ms),so it always can find the sample's recording time which coincides with the GPS time at excitation time perfectly.Because the data parsing and compositing method of different seismic instruments is different,so it needs to plan the work process according to the working principle ahead of schedule,and that will improve work efficiency.

    Understanding the vibrator - ground coupling vibration model is the key to analyzed vibrator performance. The mechanical properties of both soil and vibrator mechanic can cause bad performance. Earth damping and elasticity are two important parameters that affect the performance of seismic vibrator. Soil properties of stiffness and dynamic damping should be considered important parameters to base plate accelerometers, the research results show that the model shape of the second - order resonance is that the plate mass and the baseplate resonate in opposite directions, and the baseplate dominates the response, smaller damping will cause more amplitude of baseplate amplitude. The baseplate - earth coupling model analysis shows that the ratio of baseplate acceleration and mass acceleration is limited by the ratio of mass and baseplate at high frequency. The resonance frequency is an important index affecting the high - frequency extension, the higher the resonance frequency, the smaller the phase difference between the baseplate and the mass at the same frequency, so the baseplate and mass must be controlled to improve the resonance frequency.

    The Quantum node seismic instrument single point multichannel tapping method is a simple and efficient method for tapping the number of channels. This method requires measuring the tapping sites in advance, establishing a stepping project based on the measurement results, and writing the tapping parameters into the Quantum acquisition station. Before tapping, 12 Quantum acquisition stations are tightly connected around a single measurement point. The number of stations arranged for a singlestation measurement line node does not exceed the number of firing downholes from all downhole cabinets, and multiple measurement points are tapped simultaneously. During the process of downloading data, the data processing software TX1 automatically extracts the internal GNSS coordinate correction field measurement coordinates of Quantum node collection stations, forming the same track sequence as the actual measurement layout. The track sequence of 12 collection stations on a single measurement break point is consistent, and the polarity anomaly station can be easily and quickly selected through the first break waveform.

    Impedance matching is a technical issue that cannot be ignored in electronic circuits. Whether the impedance of circuits matches not only affects the quality of signal transmission or acquisition, but also affects the safety of electronic circuits itself. In petroleum seismic exploration, the impedance matching of seismographs does not mean strict consistency of impedance in the analog signal acquisition channel, as the concept of impedance matching in the telecommunication field. Instead, it refers to the reasonable design for the input impedance of the acquisition station and the impedance of the geophone itself, in order to ensure that seismic signals can be acquired with high quality. This article mainly discusses the impact of impedance matching between the input impedance of seismographs and the internal resistance of magnetoelectric geophones on the acquisition effect of seismic signals, hoping to be helpful to peers.

    With the development of node instrument technology, more and more node instruments appear in the seismic exploration market. Various brands of node instrument are abundant in endlessly. Although the basic principle of node data processing software is the same, the data processing software of each brand also has its own characteristics. Some are putting data cutting in the data download stage, some are cutting data into synthesis for one time operation, and some are separating each data processing stage into each operation part. In terms of software integration, it is also different, Some data correlation is not strong, and some data correlation affects the accuracy of subsequent data processing. This paper discusses the development of future node data processing software based on the characteristics of several common node data processing software.

    The western exploration area is rich in oil and gas resources and has great exploration potential. The desert pushing road is the foundation and important step of geophysical exploration in the western exploration area. The traditional bulldozer operation involves many processes, which requires the close cooperation between the surveyor and the bulldozer driver. It is necessary to do a good job in the connection of the three processes of measurement, road pushing and measurement. The measurement is frequently lofted and staked out, with high labor intensity, many users, long production cycle and high cost. Through the study of high - precision navigation technology and positioning technology, a navigation and positioning system for bulldozer stakelessconstruction is developed. It can be used to improve the overall operation efficiency, save the process connection, reduce the time of waiting for each other, reduce the number of mechanical work and mechanical leveling, optimize the utilization of equipment, reduce the process and reduce the marking wear of the flag, reduce the on - site construction personnel, reduce the risk of operation and construction, assist the driver to complete the bulldozing operation accurately and efficiently, reduce the consumption input and complete more workload, save equipment rental, oil consumption, labor cost and material cost, promote the bulldozing operation from manual guidance to mechanical independent guidance, and improve the level of bulldozing operation. It is of great significance to realize the stakeless construction of bulldozer.

    With the gradual application of a certain model of node equipment in seismic exploration and acquisition operations, various fault problems continue to emerge. Researchers continue to make optimization and improvement, and various problems gradually obtain corresponding solutions. Only the “red cabinet phenomenon” generated by “tricky stations” has always been a difficult problem in maintenance work. This article takes this as a starting point to briefly analyze the causes of the “tricky station” fault and the principle of the “red cabinet phenomenon”. By analyzing the circuit and based on the basic characteristics of the voltage follower, a new “red cabinet” solution is proposed. This plan can effectively isolate the influence of “tricky stations” on the collection index testing of other stations without changing the original test results of the station, so that the “red cabinet phenomenon” no longer occurs.
