Mud pulse telemetry preamble for sequence detection and channel estimation

A method and system of mud pulse telemetry uses a preamble having a number of periods of a synchronization sequence followed by a single period of a channel estimation sequence. The synchronization may be characterized by a generally flat frequency spectrum, and the channel estimation sequence may b...

Zusammenfassung:A method and system of mud pulse telemetry uses a preamble having a number of periods of a synchronization sequence followed by a single period of a channel estimation sequence. The synchronization may be characterized by a generally flat frequency spectrum, and the channel estimation sequence may be characterized by a low cross-correlation with said synchronization sequence. The sequences may be generated from a set of nonrepeating discrete sequences. The preamble may be suitable for both sequence detection and channel estimation, satisfy all the physical and/or electronic constraints of the system, and allow for fast convergence of an adaptive channel tracking or equalization system.
