Abstract
A downhole tool, comprising: a tool mandrel; a pad comprising a transmitter operable to transmit an electric current into a formation and a receiver operable to receive at least a portion of the electric current from transmitter; an extension from the tool mandrel that couples pad to tool mandrel; and a signal filter positioned in the downhole tool to suppress passage of mandrel leakage current that passes through tool mandrel to pad. A method of resistivity imaging, comprising: disposing a downhole tool into borehole; transmitting a current into formation surrounding the borehole with a transmitter that is extended from tool mandrel of the downhole tool towards borehole wall; and recording at least a portion of the current that returns to receiver of downhole tool, wherein a signal filter suppress passages of mandrel leakage current that passes through the tool mandrel to a pad on which the transmitter is disposed.
