In-situ gain/phase calibration and characterization of downhole receiver electronics

摘要

A logging tool and a method for in-situ, independent calibration of receiver amplifier electronics separately from transmitter electronics. A logging tool can perform in-situ gain and phase calibration on one or more receiver assemblies, each consisting of at least a receiver amplifier electronics and a receiver antenna, and based on a calculated gain and phase of the receiver assembly, determine the true antenna amplitude and phase associated with a measurement made by the receiver assembly. The logging tool can perform in-situ crosstalk measurement and calibration, by determining a crosstalk matrix for all of the receiver assemblies and for each receiver assembly, removing the crosstalk interference from the measurement made by the receiver assembly.
