Abstract (en)
[origin: WO8910572A1] Acoustical signals are transmitted through a section of drill string (30) by cancelling upward moving acoustical noise and by preconditioning the data in recognition of the comb filter characteristics of the drill string. Spaced sensors (52, 54) provide a delayed signal to summer (46) which is combined with a signal from suitable circuitry (28) and then applied to sensors (42, 44) for transmitting an uphole signal having no downward moving noise.
