Abstract: A method for operating a communication system
includes steps of: (a) receiving a call for a user
terminal at a satellite system gateway, the call
originating from another user terminal; (b) examining a
database to determine if the called user terminal is
located within a coverage area of the satellite system
gateway; and (c) if yes, formulating a paging message
and transmitting the paging message to the called user
terminal via at least one satellite. Upon the called
user terminal responding to the page, the method
further: (d) establishes the call using satellite system
resources, (e) designates one of the calling or called
user terminals as a call manager for the duration of the
call, and (f) makes a temporary assignment of satellite
system resources to the call manager user terminal for
use in managing the remainder of the call. The step of
establishing the call includes a step of assigning at
least an initial channel/circuit pair to each of the
user terminals. A call synopsis is transmitted from the
call manager user terminal to the gateway at the
completion of the call, and the gateway employs the call
synopsis when transmitting billing-related information
from the gateway to another gateway with which one or
both of the user terminals has an affiliation. The other
gateway could be a virtual gateway that serves a
localized region within the service region of the
gateway. At the completion of the call the assigned
satellite system resources are relinquished. Also
disclosed are methods and apparatus for extending the
effective service regions of gateways and virtual
gateways through a gateway-to-gateway diversity
technique, wherein gateways are interconnected for
providing user terminal traffic and signalling
information between themselves at call setup and during
a call.

Abstract: A method for alarming decrease in tyre air-pressure
for judging a decrease in internal pressure of a
tyre (W 1 ...W 4 ) attached to a four-wheeled vehicle and for
accordingly generating an alarm. A threshold (DEL)
for judging decompression is set to be larger
immediately after switching an ignition key ON when
compared to a threshold for the vehicle in a normal
running condition, and decompression is judged in a
decompression judging time which is shorter than a
time for the vehicle in a normal running condition.
The threshold for judging decompression and the
decompression judging time are returned to those for
the normal running condition of the vehicle in case
no decompression is judged. An apparatus used for
the method is also disclosed. It is possible to
detect a condition in which a large decompressed
condition exists at an early stage on starting 
running so that it is possible to improve the
accuracy of detecting decompression.
