Abstract

The present disclosure provides several methods for selecting and transmitting information from downhole using more than one channel of communication wherein data streams transmitted up each communications channel are each independently interpretable without reference to data provided up the other of the communications channels. Preferred embodiments incorporate the use of a combination of at least two of mud-based telemetry, tubular-based telemetry, and electromagnetic telemetry to achieve improved results and take advantage of opportunities presented by the differences between the different channels of communication.
