    Abstract: An improved gravitational separator for mixtures of immiscible liquids of different densities, particularly oil and water, includes a reaction member in the form of a dome or diaphragm immersed in more dense liquid to be separated and which floats upwardly in the more dense liquid under the influence of liquid of less density accumulated beneath the dome or diaphragm. A coalescer screen filter system is provided in the water outlet path in the separator, the coalescer screens being contained in a chamber provided with automatically operating, one-way, pressure responsive valves to ensure proper flow of water in a forward and backflush sense through the chamber. A flotation feature for the reaction member is provided, and the reaction member includes an auxiliary air chamber to prevent loss of a minimum desired residual layer of less dense fluid beneath the reaction member when air accumulates in this area. A specific inflow and outflow conduit arrangement is provided to minimize turbulence in the separator. An oil collection system is provided to carry backflushed oil from the coalescer to the inlet conduit of the separator.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a highly accurate synchronization method for a satellite communication system (100). The system maintains a downlink symbol counter at an earth terminal and determines a downlink symbol count representative of the time of arrival of a burst transmitted from the earth terminal to a satellite (106, 206). The earth terminal adjusts the downlink symbol counter to correspond to the downlink symbol count (136, 220) upon arrival of a predetermined reference point in a downlink frame. A timing error may initially be determined by launching an entry order wire from the earth terminal to the satellite (116). The timing error may be transmitted to the earth terminal using a correction code which indicates the transmission is early, late, absent, or no change is required (134, 218). The terminal may make additional periodic timing adjustments based on the length of the propagation path between the earth terminal and the satellite (108, 208). The earth terminal may then precisely time the transmission of bursts from the earth terminal to the satellite (130, 214). The length of the propagation path and the timing error may be stored in the earth terminal so that the earth terminal may reenter the system without undertaking multiple commissioning processes.

    Abstract: An initial entry processor (40) for use in a processing satellite (12) in a satellite based communications system (10) is provided having a buffer (62), a detection and timing circuit (64) and an identity circuit (66). The buffer (62) stores an initial entry burst (54) transmitted from at least one terrestrial terminal (14) to the processing satellite (12). The detection and timing circuit (64) detects the initial entry burst (54) and determines a time of arrival of the initial entry burst (54) relative to an initial entry burst slot (52). The identity circuit (66) determines an identity of the terrestrial terminal (14) that transmitted the initial entry burst (54) such that the time of arrival is used by the identified terrestrial terminal (14) during subsequent communications with the processing satellite (12).
