Initial Design for NTS Time Transfer Receiver.
Abstract
A Time Transfer Receiver (TTR) was designed to utilize the Navigation Technology Satellites (NTS) for making precise time comparisons between a master station and remotely located stations. The receiver processes a 335-MHz sidetone ranging signal from an NTS satellite using a microcomputer-controlled processor. The receiver-processed data are then compared to data obtained at the master station to arrive at a time comparison. The nominal accuracy of the results is approximately 200 ns. (Author)
