Abstract

The disclosed embodiments include systems and methods for multi-frequency focusing signal processing in wellbore logging. In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining a harmonic frequency set to evaluate a resistivity of a formation at a wellbore location, where the harmonic frequency set includes at least one harmonic frequency of a fundamental frequency. The method also includes selecting a waveform from a library of waveforms based on the obtained harmonic frequency set, where the library of waveforms includes a plurality of waveforms having different frequency spectrums. The selected waveform corresponds to a predicted conductivity of the formation. The method further includes generating, based on the selected waveform, a binary waveform for use in evaluating the resistivity of the formation at the wellbore location.
