Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile communication system including a network constituted of at least one switching center and a plurality of base stations, and a mobile station which communicates with the base stations simultaneously. The system permits varying transmission delay between the switching center and the base stations according to the type of services available to the mobile station. The object of the present invention is to propose a communication which permits varying transmission delay according to the type of service currently employed, and to promptly recover a synchronization state even if an out-of-sync state happens.      To attain the object, a memory means (mobile switching center processor 32) stores transmission delay characteristics corresponding to services which are available to the mobile station. Furthermore, a communication timing setting means (diversity handover trunk 34) determines the timing of communication for the base stations according to the transmission delay characteristic selected according to the service.

Abstract: A method for determining thermal neutron capture cross-section of an earth formation penetrated by a wellbore from counts of capture gamma rays detected at spaced apart locations from a source irradiating the formations with bursts of high energy neutrons. An apparent capture cross-section is determined from counts detected at one of the spaced apart locations. The apparent capture cross-section is adjusted by a correction factor calculated from counts detected at each of the spaced apart locations. The correction factor is calculated from an empirical relationship of known values of formation capture cross-section, wellbore diameter and wellbore capture cross section, with respect to counts detected at each of the spaced apart locations. Coefficients of the empirical relationship are determined by simulating counts which would be detected in response to the known values of formation capture cross-section, wellbore diameter and capture cross section. The coefficients are adjusted until differences between capture cross-section calculated by the relationship from the simulated counts and the known values of formation capture cross-section are minimized. In the preferred embodiment, coefficients are calculated for each one of at least two time regions into which the counts between successive bursts are segregated.

Abstract: A processing method for use in providing improved SAR imagery at high duty factors that provides for enhanced radar sensitivity. Radar signals are transmitted that embody a high duty factor ultra-high resolution SAR waveform generated using a biphase code with a predetermined high pulse compression ratio. Received radar returns comprising a SAR map are Fourier transformed and multiplied by a stored set of complex weights. The resultant Fourier transformed complex weighted SAR map is then inverse Fourier transformed to obtain compressed range bins. The inverse Fourier transformed SAR map is then processed for display.
