Abstract:
The TIMATION principles, although originally proposed as a method of navigation, can be used to transfer time between any number of sites. Time- transfer experiments were performed between NRL and several other ground stations using passive ranging techniques and the TIMATION II satellite. The results indicate this method is capable of transferring time to an accuracy of approximately one tenth of a microsecond. Author
