Abstract

See full text

A system for producing controlled vibrations within a borehole comprises a vibration mechanism an impact to produce a plurality of vibration beats. The vibration mechanism is located substantially near a bottom hole assembly within the borehole. A damping mechanism selectively damps the vibration beats to encode information therein. The damping mechanism is located remotely from the vibration mechanism along a drill string of the bottom hole assembly.
