Complexity and Scaling Laws of Phase Drift in Symmetric Networks of Crystal Oscillators for Precision Timing
Abstract
We present an interdisciplinary plan in Nonlinear Dynamics research in Engineering, Mathematics, and Physics, to develop a compact, high-precision, inexpensive, timing system in the order of 10?9 sec., using networks of crystal oscillators. The proposed Coupled Crystal Oscillator System (CCOST) will consist of N crystal oscillators to create ultra-stable oscillations and thus achieve, via synchronized phases, very high precision timing. The research plan is twofold: to conduct analytical and computational tasks and to conduct experimental works.
