We define a set of dimensionless parameters that describe the steady state solution of cold atom distribution in laser light and cooling time.

Different solutions have been proposed for an automated on-board detection of clock anomalies, among which a frequency jump detector based on a recursive exponential filter, with soft requirements in terms of memory and computational power and hence particularly useful for on-board applications. Here, we propose a generalization of this recursive detector, based on double exponential smoothing: it properly takes into account the frequency drift and also detects drift and variance changes. Then, we test a first version of our detector on simulated and real data, and we discuss the results.","PeriodicalId":395582,"journal":{"name":"2018 European Frequency and Time Forum (EFTF)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126997906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
