Abstract
One embodiment disclosed relates to an array of sensors for towed marine streamers. The array may include a first plurality of transducers of a first form configured to have a first polarity in electrical response to a change in an environmental condition and a second plurality of transducers of a second form coupled to the first plurality of transducers and configured to have a second polarity, opposite of the first polarity, in electrical response to the change in the environmental condition. The first plurality may be equal to the second plurality. The first plurality of transducers may be coupled to the second plurality of transducers in a linearly alternating fashion. The array may be coupled to a amplifier. The array may be included along a length of at least a portion of a marine streamer. Another embodiment disclosed relates to a method of acquiring sensor signals in a marine streamer being towed by a vessel during a seismic marine survey. Other embodiments, aspects and features are also disclosed.
