DoD PTTI Report

Abstract

The widespread application of Precise Time and Time Interval (PTTI) in modern electronic systems has been rapidly expanding. This growth reflects the importance of PTTI to many advanced systems. Precise time is closely related to precise distance measurements, the coordination of remote actions over extended periods of time, and the better utilization of the frequency spectrum. DoD Instruction 5000.2 emphasizes the need for a common time reference (The USNO Master Clock) for these systems of vital interest to our security. This report will present the results of the Annual PTTI Summary which describes the utilization of PTTI among the different components of the Department of Defense and highlight areas of primary interest and concerns.
