Abstract
A system for downhole frequency re-tuning includes a receiver antenna, a receiver matching network, a transmitter antenna, the transmitter antenna outputting a signal that is received at the receiver antenna, a transmitter matching network, a power amplifier providing operational power to the transmitter antenna, and a frequency sweeping system. The frequency sweeping system includes an oscillator, coupled to the power amplifier, the oscillator providing an input signal to the power amplifier to adjust power output to the transmitter antenna. The system also includes a circulator, positioned between the power amplifier and the transmitter matching network, the circulator directing the operational power to the transmitter antenna. The system further includes a reflected power meter, coupled to the circulator, the reflected power meter receiving reflected power at the transmitter antenna responsive to receiver antenna. The system also includes a control module.
