ABSTRACT:
Data is transmitted through a drill string by means of acoustical energy by transmitting an acoustical signal for a first predetermined interval and ceasing transmission of the signal for a second predetermined interval to represent a first binary state; ceasing transmission of the signal for a third predetermined interval to represent a second binary state; and combining transmission and cessation of transmission of the signal in binary sequences representative of borehole data.
