    摘要: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for optimizing telemetry schemes with a constant insensible group delay. Systems and methods are provided for receiving an acquisition including compressed data and dummy data from a downhole logging system, determining a prior decompressor queue size based on the acquisition for a plurality of time intervals, determining a decompressor data size based on the acquisition for the plurality of time intervals, and determining a delay where the prior decompressor queue size is continuously greater than or equal to the decompressor data size for the plurality of time intervals.

    摘要: Provided is a downhole rotary slip ring joint, a well system, and a method for accessing a wellbore. The downhole rotary slip ring joint, in one aspect, includes an outer mandrel, an inner mandrel operable to rotate relative to the outer mandrel, first and second outer mandrel communication connections coupled to the outer mandrel. The downhole rotary slip ring joint, according to this aspect, further includes first and second inner mandrel communication connections coupled to the inner mandrel, a first and second passageway extending through the outer mandrel and the inner mandrel, the first and second passageway configured to provide continuous coupling between the second outer mandrel communication connection and the second inner mandrel communication connection regardless of a rotation of the inner mandrel relative to the outer mandrel, wherein the downhole rotary slip ring joint is operable to be coupled to a wellbore access tool.
