Fast computation of the dynamic Allan variance

L Galleani, P Tavella - … Control Symposium Joint with the 22nd …, 2009 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The dynamic Allan variance (DAVAR) is a tool that allows to understand if the stability of an
atomic clock is changing with time. Since an anomaly in the clock behavior generates a …

Performance evaluation of real-time carrier-phase GPS time transfer

SW Lee, J Kim - Measurement Science and Technology, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
A real-time GPS time transfer system was developed to measure the phase difference
