| Abstract(in English) | ETS-VIII, a Japanese geo-stationary satellite launched in December 2006, has been developed to obtain the fundamental technologies for satellite positioning systems using two onboard cesium atomic clocks. In NICT, we developed Time Comparison Equipments (TCEs) both onboard ETS-VIII and on Earth-station for precise time transfer between the atomic clocks on the satellite and a ground-reference clock. Since February 2007, we have carried out the experiment to confirm the performance of TCE in orbit after the launch. As a result, we confirmed that TCEs are able to measure the code phase with subnanosecond precision and measure the carrier phase with a few picosecond precision. |
