Electromagnetic resistivity logging systems and methods yielding formation anisotropy and dip from a signal set that closely approximates the response of a idealized tool. One illustrative method embodiment derives from an azimuthally-sensitive tool's measurements a full set of orthogonal direct couplings (Vxx, Vyy, Vzz) and a cross-coupling sum (Vxz+Vzx) or (Vyz+Vzy). These values are converted into a signal set as a function of borehole position, the set including: a first signal representing a ratio between Vzz coupling components at different spacing distances, a second signal representing a ratio between Vxx and Vzz coupling components, a third signal representing a ratio between Vyy and Vzz coupling components, a fourth signal representing a ratio between Vxx and Vyy coupling components, and a fifth signal representing a ratio between a cross-coupling sum and a sum of the direct couplings. From this signal set, formation parameters can be accurately determined by inversion. |
