Wellbore friction measurement, method and apparatus
An apparatus and method for measuring position and magnitude of downhole mechanical friction. The apparatus comprises sensors that reside along, or in-line with, a section of equipment that is installed or removed from a wellbore. The sensing device is configured to measure friction relative to the wellbore during a work-over or other well intervention procedures where said section of equipment (tubing, rods, cable / wireline, etc.) is installed in, or removed from, the wellbore. Recorded measurements are processed to correct for dynamic forces to provide a measure of friction through the wellbore. Additionally, a method for applying the map of wellbore friction to the design and analysis of a rod actuated pump is presented. The method and apparatus presented herein pertain specifically to the handling of continuous rod, continuous tubing, or wireline / cable passing through the wellbore as measured at surface.

Systems and Methods for Supporting Both Pulse Amplitude Modulation and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
Systems and devices are provided for receiving or transmitting IQ data (e.g., suitable for passband quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)) over a wireline using pairs of baseband pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-n) signals. Encoding circuitry may map data from an input bit stream to IQ data that includes an in-phase component and a quadrature-phase component. Modulator circuitry may determine an in-phase PAM-n signal based on the in-phase component and a quadrature-phase PAM-n signal based on the quadrature-phase component. Driver circuitry may transmit the in-phase PAM-n signal and the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal across a wireline channel. The in-phase PAM-n signal may be different by 90° from the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal. This may enable a remote receiver on the wireline channel to detect the in-phase PAM-n signal independently of the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal.
