Abstract
Wireless communication and electromagnetic telemetry between various surface or downhole devices may be provided using two or more dipole antennas. The dipole antennas may be formed, for example, by electrically isolating, for each electric dipole antenna, two electrically conductive portions. The two electrically conductive portions are part of a downhole casing, a downhole liner, a completion, a production tube, or a downhole tool. The two or more electric dipole antennas are disposed in different sections of a completed well, in one or more lateral wells, in different completed wells, or in any combination of those. An electromagnetic signal is transmitting from at least one of the two or more dipole antennas and received at any other of the two or more dipole antennas, thereby providing telemetry or wireless communication between the dipole antennas of the petrophysical devices.
