Abstract: Described herein are systems and techniques for improving the accuracy of determinations made using sensed data. Sensors used to collect acoustic data may collect unwanted noises when collecting data useful for a given purpose. Since unwanted noises may reduce the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of a sensing system, these unwanted noises can reduce the reliability of determinations made by the sensing system. Sensors of the present disclosure may include a chamber that may be filled with gas or be configured to resist pressures that exist in wellbore. Differences in acoustic transmission coefficients and shapes used to build the sensor may attenuate noise that propagates from certain directions. Sensing devices of the present disclosure may be used to attenuate noise from one direction while passing and sensing sounds that propagate from another direction.
