Summary: | A method for performing a formation physical action includes: transmitting a first time-domain transient electromagnetic (EM) signal into a borehole and the formation using a downhole EM wave propagation tool, the first EM signal having frequency domain components in a range of at least 1 MHz to 1 GHz; receiving a second time-domain transient EM signal due to the transmitting of the first EM signal, the second EM signal having frequency domain components in the range of at least 1 MHz to 1 GHz; calculating attenuation and phase shift S-parameters as a function of frequency using the first and second EM signals; assigning to the formation at least one of a resistivity value and a permittivity value of a reference that matches or is within a selected range of the attenuation and phase shift S-parameters; and performing the physical action using the at least one of the resistivity value and the permittivity value. |
