Abstract
A system may obtain azimuth and inclination measurements from a downhole tool in a downhole environment. A system may obtain a downhole ROP and downhole DLS from a downhole control unit. A system may determine a corrected DLS demand based at least partially on a ratio of downhole ROP and surface ROP. A system may transmit a DLS demand setting to the downhole tool based at least partially on the corrected DLS demand and the downhole ROP. A system may drill at least a portion of a borehole with the downhole tool based at least partially on the corrected DLS demand.
