Method to control and correct telemtry well information in the basis of residue number system

The paper considers the issue of increasing the reliability of the borehole telemetry information. The issue is suggested to be solved by applying the code of nonpositional residue number system instead of a traditionally used positional number notation to code the information. The residue number system is shown to have the best error-correcting capacities and is able both to detect the errors and correct them.Keywords: oil wells; telemetry information, coding, residue number system, error-correcting capacities, error detection, error correctio
