Device for transmitting signals by radio and cable between a central control and recording system and data acquisition devices

摘要

In a data acquisition for seismic exploration, where the terrain is rugged or includes natural features which prohibit satisfactory radio communication between a central control and recording system and a plurality of seismic data signal acquisition devices, a relay element and a transmission cable are provided so that those acquisition devices which are not capable of satisfactory radio communication with the central control and recording system communicate instead with the relay element either by transmission cable or radio transmission and the relay element in turn communicates with the central control and recording system either by radio transmission or transmission cable, respectively.
