Claim 0:
1. A tool for measuring a formation velocity of a formation, the tool comprising:
a sensor to be disposed in the formation, the sensor including a first transmitter, a second transmitter, and a first receiver array carried by a housing, the first transmitter disposed at a first angle relative to the first receiver array and the second transmitter disposed at a second angle relative to the first receiver array; and
a processor to receive signal data from the sensor and determine a first wave propagation velocity of the formation based on signal data associated with the first transmitter and a second wave propagation velocity of the formation based on signal data associated with the second transmitter; and
wherein the processor is further configured to calculate an average velocity of the formation, the average velocity of the formation being an average of the first wave propagation velocity of the formation and the second wave propagation velocity of the formation.
