(2023), proposes a peak frequency measurement method for the horizontal‐to‐vertical spectral ratio (HVSR). In addition to its validation, they consider how the peak frequency and peak value of HVSR vary depending on the analyst, the sensor model, and the difference between the targeted seismic motion and microtremor. In contrast, whether using the entire HVSR or focusing on a portion of it, such as the peak, Nakamura (2019) mentioned that there would be confusion if it is not clear which wave kind property of the various wave kinds is to be used, whether microtremor or...
