Claim 16:
17. An apparatus comprising:
a multicomponent tool having at least one transmitter and at least one receiver; and
a device programmed to:
obtain nonzero tensor components decoupled from multiple signals detected at multiple azimuth angles of the multicomponent tool;
calculate a geosignal value with at least a subset of the nonzero tensor components, one of the multiple azimuth angles, and a relative dip angle of the multicomponent tool;
determine an inferred location of the multicomponent tool with respect to a formation boundary based, at least in part, on the geosignal value and a first threshold; and
steer the multicomponent tool based on the inferred location.
