Truetime Model GPS-DC-552 MK III GPS Receiver Live Static Test,

Abstract

The GPS Program Offices, Los Angeles Air Force Base, California, has established a Center of Expertise (COE) comprised of several agencies, each providing unique GPS test capabilities for the purpose of developing a Commercial Receiver Test Program (CRTP). The Responsible Test Organization (RTO) for the COE is the 746th Test Group, 46th Guidance Test Squadron, Holloman, Air Force Base, New Mexico. The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has been designed as a COE with the responsibility of testing the time output characteristics and accuracy of the commercial receivers. The NRL clock testing facility has time traceable to the U.S. Naval Observatory and the procedures used are taken from the CORE INS/GR/EGI TEST PLAN prepared by RTO.
