Experiments with powerful seismic vibrators carried out in the Siberian Branch of RAS have shown the possibility to investigate the small changes of the tensely-deformed state of a seismic-prone zone of 300 - 500 km size. The method of vibroseismic interferometry was used in these experiments. It is based on the seismic sounding of the region by powerful seismic vibrators with the long-time narrow-band harmonic signal radiation. Changes of the tensely-deformed state are determined through variations of the amplitude- phase characteristics of the stationary wave fields, which are excited in a medium due to the long-time radiation of harmonic signals of constant frequency from the vibrator. The method of vibroseismic interferometry has high sensitivity to the time changes of parameters of the medium in the case of the long-distance observations. The influence of the lunar-solar tides deformations of the Earth's crust on the seismic waves velocities was investigated in the experiments with a 100-ton force seismic vibrator and recording systems of vibroseismic signals, located at distances of 356 - 430 km from a source. It was determined that the variations of the seismic waves velocities are about 10-5 - 10-6 and have 12- and 24-hour periodicity well correlated with the lunar-solar tides periodicity. This method can be efficiently used to define the first changes of the stress in the medium and location of the areas of such changes in the seismic-prone zone. Now an experimental system of active vibroseismic monitoring of the seismic-prone zones, which includes powerful 100- ton force vibrators, mobile seismic arrays for vibrosignals recording and computer systems for the vibromonitoring data processing is created.
