Advanced space rubidium atomic frequency standard for satellite navigation

NavIC (Navigation with Indian Constellation) is a regional satellite navigation system called Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS). The NavIC is presently composed of seven operational satellite configuration geometry. We present indigenously designed and developed RAFS for NavIC, nam...
