Linear array of piezoelectric transducers for towed marine streamers

A marine seismic sensor array, comprising:

• at least a first hydrophone and a second hydrophone, each comprising:
• exactly one positive terminal electrode that has a positive terminal electrode surface area and corresponds to a single first electrical node, and exactly one negative terminal electrode that has a negative terminal electrode surface area and corresponds to a single second electrical node distinct from the first electrical node, wherein:
• the first and second hydrophones are oppositely configured in that the positive terminal electrode surface area of the first hydrophone is smaller than the negative terminal electrode surface area of the first hydrophone, and the negative terminal electrode surface area of the second hydrophone is smaller than the positive terminal electrode surface area of the second hydrophone;
• the positive terminal electrodes of the first and second hydrophones are electrically connected to form one signal from the positive terminal electrodes;
• the negative terminal electrodes of the first and second hydrophones are electrically connected to form one signal from the negative terminal electrodes;
• and
• the positive terminal electrode surface area of the first and second hydrophones combined is the same as the negative terminal electrode surface area of the first and second hydrophones combined.
