The transfer function for the cryogenic gravimeter GWR-C021 operating at Membach (Belgium) has been experimentally determined by injecting known voltages into the control electronics of the system. The output of the gravimeter to the injected sine waves and step functions has been observed. This give a precise knowledge of the transfer function of the gravimeter. It allows one to reach a precision of better than 0.01 second in the phase response of the instrument, in agreement with the Global Geodynamics Project (GGP) requirements. ¿ 2000 American Geophysical Union
