Abstract:

We applied a mud pulse signal to transmit the downhole measured parameters in a Logging While Drilling (LWD) system. The high-data-rate mud pulse signal was almost completely overwhelmed by noise and difficult to be identified because of the narrow pulse width, impacts of the pump noise, and the reflected wave. The wavelet transform’s multiresolution is suitable for signal denoising. In this paper, during the denoising process of the wavelet transform, we used a series of evaluation parameters to select the optimal parameter combination for denoising a mud pulse signal. We verified the feasibility of the wavelet transform denoising algorithm by analysing and processing an operational high-data-rate mud pulse signal. The decoding algorithm was available by applying self-correlation and bit synchronization. The application results through a field application showed that the processing algorithm was suitable for the high-data-rate mud pulse signal’s process.
