Abstract

Methods and systems for removing tool mode waveforms. The method may include disposing a bottom hole assembly (BHA) into a wellbore. The BHA may comprise at least one transmitter configured to transmit a pressure pulse and at least one receiver configured to record one or more waveforms. The method may further comprise performing a logging-while-drilling (LWD) operation in which the one or more waveforms are recorded with the at least one receiver, transmitting the one or more waveforms to an information handling system, removing one or more tool mode waveforms from the one or more waveforms to form an updated set of waveforms, and forming differential phase time semblance map based at least in part on the updated set of waveforms. The system may comprise the BHA and information handling system configured to remove one or more tool mode waveforms.
