Abstract

EM-telemetry remote sensing wireless systems include a plurality of downhole tools in a drilling area, an array of electrodes at the earth's surface, a noise reduction manager, and an acquisition system. Each downhole tool transmits a modulated current into the formation to generate an electromagnetic signal at the earth's surface. The array of electrodes comprises a plurality of nodes. Each node has a plurality of electrodes that receives the signal. The signal received by the node has a signal component from the tool and a noise component from the area. The noise reduction manager has a de-mixing vector that filters the noise component of the signal and increases a signal to noise ratio. The acquisition system located on earth's surface wirelessly receives signal from each node.
