Abstract
A method for obtaining full tensor gain compensated propagation measurements includes processing a full tensor voltage measurement to obtain a fully gain compensated tensor quantity. An electromagnetic logging tool including at least first and second axially spaced transmitters and at least first and second axially spaced receivers is rotated in a subterranean borehole. A plurality of voltage measurements are acquired while rotating to obtain a full tensor voltage measurement which is in turn processed to obtain the fully gain compensated tensor quantity.
