Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and method for estimating a parameter of interest of an earth formation involving alignment information between non-collocated oriented receivers and their corresponding non-collocated oriented transmitters. The method may include generating signal responses indicative to energy transmitted into an earth formation; estimating differences in alignment between transmitters and receivers; using the estimated differences in alignment to compensate for misalignment; and estimating a parameter of interest using the misalignment compensated signals. The misalignment estimate may include an inversion of at least one measurement from an alignment sensor. The apparatus may include a bottom hole assembly with oriented transmitters, oriented receivers, one or more alignment sensors, and at least one processor configured to compensate for misalignment using information about difference in alignment between at least one oriented transmitter and at least one oriented receiver.
