Working application of TWSTT for high precision remote synchronization

Two-way satellite time transfer (TWSTT) is the primary method implemented to determine the synchronization error between the United States Naval Observatory (USNO) Alternate Master Clock (AMC) located in Colorado and the USNO Master Clock located in Washington, DC. A hydrogen maser at the AMC is con...

Description
Summary:Two-way satellite time transfer (TWSTT) is the primary method implemented to determine the synchronization error between the United States Naval Observatory (USNO) Alternate Master Clock (AMC) located in Colorado and the USNO Master Clock located in Washington, DC. A hydrogen maser at the AMC is controlled to the USNO Master Clock within 1 ns RMS as determined by low noise (
