A noise and vibration sensing system is provided. The sensing system includes an acceleration sensor arrangement and a summer module. The acceleration sensor arrangement includes at least one acceleration sensor and is configured to generate at least two sense signals representative of acceleration that acts on the acceleration sensor arrangement. The at least two sense signals includes dynamic ranges that are ratios between maximum amplitudes of the at least two sense signals and noise created by the acceleration sensor arrangement. The summer module is configured to sum up the at least two sense signals to provide a sum signal that includes noise and a dynamic range which is a ratio between a maximum amplitude of the sum signal and the noise included in the sum signal. The dynamic range of the sum signal is greater than the arithmetic mean of the dynamic ranges of the at least two sense signals.
