German term or phrase: Bodenschall oder Ein-Seitenschall
Context:

"In diesem Falle ist es auch sinnvoll, den Ultraschall einseitig anzuordnen (Bodenschall oder Ein-Seitenschall)."

Re. multi-frequency ultrasound devices. A Bodenschall-Mikrofon is evidently a geophone, but I doubt that is relevant here.
