To stabilize the phase of the frequency signal we applied the approach with the electronic stabilization of the propagation delay. We measured the residual instability resulting from the fact that in a telecommunication network the signals in the forward and backward direction do not share the same fiber and are transmitted through different pieces of equipment when passing through reconfigurable optical add drop multiplexers or optical amplifiers. Our experiments show that results may depend substantially on the route of the link. For all tested links, however, the stability was better than the stability of the signal generated by commercial 5071A cesium standard. In case of one link even the stability better than stability of H-maser was observed for averaging times longer than 1000 s.","PeriodicalId":57667,"journal":{"name":"时间频率公报","volume":"44 1","pages":"280-283"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85733946","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}

As the design has been demonstrated on an elegant breadboard of the Robust Onboard Frequency Reference Subsystem, this concept is proposed for the next-generation of Precise Timing Facility.

We have investigated another application of the USRP by implementing a transceiver capable of interrogating passive, wireless surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors centered at 915MHz. Interrogation of wideband orthogonal frequency coded (OFC) SAW sensors imposes strict requirements on the timing and synchronization of the transceiver. In the standard mode of operation, samples are generated and streamed between the USRP and host computer, introducing latency and bandwidth limitations due to the sampling bus. To achieve the performance required for this application, the USRP FPGA has been modified to introduce new functionality. Extraction of the sensor temperature is accomplished with a custom matched filter correlator. The system is capable of interrogating multiple sensors and can quickly reconfigure the USRP. Demonstration of the USRP wireless sensor system is achieved by interrogating wireless SAW OFC sensors at 915MHz and extracting the sensor temperature.","PeriodicalId":57667,"journal":{"name":"时间频率公报","volume":"34 8","pages":"530-535"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/FCS.2015.7138900","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72475996","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}

It was however noted that for some receivers, a frequency difference is observed between the clock solution based on the code measurements and the clock solution based on the carrier phase measurements. These observations reveal some inconsistency between the code and carrier phases measured by the receiver. One explanation of this discrepancy is the time offset that can exist for some receivers between the code and carrier phase latching. This paper explains how a code-phase bias in the receiver hardware can induce a frequency difference between the code and the carrier phase clock solutions. The impact on PPP is then quantified. Finally, the possibility to determine this code-phase bias in the PPP modeling is investigated, and the first results are presented.","PeriodicalId":57667,"journal":{"name":"时间频率公报","volume":"17 1","pages":"662-666"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74622518","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}

The clock Physics Package (PP) is based on a compact magnetron-type microwave cavity of 45 cm3 volume, and our current clock PP has a volume of only 0.8 liters, including temperature control and magnetic shields. This clock PP is completed by a newlydeveloped frequency-stabilized laser head of 2.5 liters overall volume, with an acoustic optical modulator (AOM) integrated within the laser head for switching the laser output power. Due to the highly uniform magnetic field inside the microwave cavity, Ramsey signals with high contrast of up to 35% and with a linewidth of 160 Hz have been demonstrated. A typical shortterm clock stability of 2.4×10-13τ-1/2 is measured. Thanks to the pulsed operation, the light-shift effect has been considerably suppressed as compared to previously demonstrated continuous-wave (CW) clock operation using the same clock PP, which is expected to enable improved long-term clock stabilities down to the 10-14 level or better.","PeriodicalId":57667,"journal":{"name":"时间频率公报","volume":"38 1","pages":"800-803"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81544035","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}
