Abstract

Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for improving mud motor trajectory controls. Systems and methods are provided for receiving control data from a mud motor trajectory controller, predefining a plurality of control modes based on the control data from the mud motor trajectory controller, achieving desired slide rotate ratios and toolface angles by solving an established objective function that mathematically represents operational preferences and system constraints for a selected control mode of the plurality of control modes, generating a modulation procedure that converts the slide-rotate ratios to a binary slide and rotate control sequence, and applying the modulation procedure to generate the binary slide and rotate control sequence.
