Simultaneous Absolute Calibration of Three Geodetic-Quality Timing Receivers

Abstract

The simultaneous calibration of three geodetic-quality timing receivers is performed with a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal simulator. Internal delays for each receiver are measured as a function of the phase difference between the one pulse per second and 20 MHz clock inputs. A calibration curve for each receiver is derived and the curves are compared.
