Time and frequency transfer
Time and frequency transfer describes mechanisms for comparing measurements of time and frequency from one location to another. The technique is commonly used for creating and distributing standard time scales such as International Atomic Time (TAI).
Examples
Examples of time and frequency transfer techniques include:
- Simultaneous observation methods:
- Two-way transfer methods:
- Network methods:
