VLF ENVELOPE TIMING EXPERIMENT.

Abstract

Progress is reported on the design of precision VLF envelope timing equipment to be used to demonstrate the feasibility of time synchronization at separate geographical locations. The experiment is in three phases. The first phase is to construct four envelope timing systems and to test this equipment at the contractor's plant. The successful accomplishment of this phase depends upon a demonstration that a given geographical location, an arrival point on the keyed NBA time pulse can be determined with the aid of statistical analysis to a higher precision than was heretofore possible. The goal of this phase is to establish the arrival point with high probability to better the 10 microsecond accuracy. (Author)
