ABSTRACT:
A communication device is located within a well and includes a transducer that converts a first electrical signal into a first acoustic signal for transmission through the well and that converts second acoustic signal received from the well to a second electrical signal. The transducer is at least partially coated with an anechoic material in order to reduce the effects of acoustic signal impairments, such as echoes, flow and machine noise, and reverberations. The anechoic material has a thickness that is a fraction of a wavelength of the acoustic signals.
