A communication system can include a first transceiver and a second transceiver that can communicate digital baseband data via a direct current (DC) power line bus in the wellbore. One or more of the transceivers includes a demodulator for demodulating the digital baseband data received from the DC power line bus into multiple digital data streams, and includes a digital processor for filtering and applying error correction to the digital data streams to produce a decoded digital data stream.

Digital baseband communication on power line downhole

Techniques for determining depth of a downhole tool in a wellbore include running a first downhole tool into a wellbore on a downhole conveyance; generating time-dependent logging data with the first downhole tool in the wellbore, at least one of the depth-dependent logging data or the time-dependent logging data associated with an electric or a magnetic property of a wellbore casing or a geological formation; correlating at the first downhole tool the time-dependent logging data with the depth-dependent logging data; and based on the correlation, determining at least one of a depth of the first downhole tool in the wellbore or a speed of the first downhole tool in the wellbore.
