Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques for controlling a trajectory of a mud motor directional drill are disclosed. A system receives one or more inputs pertaining to constraints for a wellbore in a mud motor drilling operation. The system constructs, as a function of the one or more inputs, a discretized well depth horizon. One or more binary slide and rotate commands for controlling a directional drill within the wellbore is generated based on an analysis of the discretized well depth horizon. The system controls the directional drill according to the one or more binary slide and rotate commands.
