GLONASS Onboard Time/Frequency Standards: Ten Years of Operation

Abstract

The GLONASS onboard time/frequency standards are one of the main elements determining the accuracy of phase synchronization of navigation signals emitted by the satellites and, consequently, the accuracy of navigation and timing determination by the users. In this connection, the maintenance of their accuracy and reliability parameters during operation is very important. The present paper submits the results of analysis of GLONASS onboard time/frequency standards operation as of 18 January 1996, when the space segment was completed by all 24 satellites.
