Abstract: The paper aims to describe the experience of using a modern seismic monitoring system to obtain a game-changing type of data, i.e. long-term continuous records of seismic sensor oscillations. Unlike the classical method of using seismic monitoring systems, where short segments of signal with elastic P- and S-waves are considered as valuable information, the new approach involves analyzing long-time segments that contain background oscillations of seismic sensors. The paper considers an example of obtaining such records using sensors of the GITS seismic monitoring system installed in a deep iron mine. A method of interpreting such data by means of special processing of the obtained records based on the theory of pendulum-type waves is proposed. This method can be used as a methodological basis for assessing the stress-strain state of a rock mass.

Keywords: seismic activity, rock bump, stress-strain state, seismic sensors, continuous records, pendulum waves, block medium
