摘要
A disclosed downhole drilling system may include a drill bit electrically coupled to a pulse-generating circuit to generate electrical arcs between first and second electrodes during pulsed drilling operations, a sensor to record responses to electromagnetic or acoustic waves produced by the electrical arcs, and a sensor analysis system. The electrical arcs occur at different azimuthal locations between the electrodes. The sensor analysis system may obtain a plurality of measurements representing first responses recorded by the sensor during a pulsed drilling operation, generate a model of a source of the electrical arcs based on the measurements, obtain an additional measurement representing a second response recorded by the sensor during the operation, and determine a characteristic of a formation near the drill bit using an inversion based on the model and the additional measurement. The determined characteristic may be used to determine dip parameters or construct images of the formation.
