Abstract
An electromagnetic tool using slotted dipole antennas is presented. The dipoles may be placed in slots on a drill collar. A receiver or transmitter antenna consists of one or more slots. A dipole consists of a ferrite rod with electric wires placed above and below the ferrite. Wires may be connected such that wire current forms a loop around the ferrite rod. When a group of slots are used for an antenna, wire holes are constructed between slots. Effectively a single wire may be used to go above all ferrite rods in the group and then turn to go below all the rods. Two wire segments are in a wire hole connecting two adjacent slots. Currents in the two segments are the same in magnitudes and flow in opposite directions. There is no net current in wires in a wire hole.
