SATELLITE SYSTEMS TIMING FORMATS,

Abstract

This report is to acquaint users with the timing formats in use by Satellite Systems. The details of each time code word presented are compiled from their respective Technical Manuals and Handbooks. Code word titles have originated from lack of an available standard. Information used is current as of the date of issue. There is a demand for time formats that are suitable for recording on magnetic tape, recording oscillographs, film and real time transmissions that also meet the requirements of both manual and automatic data reduction. This demand made it necessary to utilize a number of time systems. The time formats in use by Satellite Systems are listed. A detail description of each format, where and how used, is presented to familiarize and to permit better understanding of the systems available.
