Keywords: Time Signals (8700924583).jpg NIST researchers transferred ultraprecise time signals over the air between a laboratory on NIST's campus in Boulder Colorado and nearby Kohler Mesa Signals were sent in both directions reflected off a mirror on the mesa and returned to the lab a total distrance of approximately two kilometers The two-way technique overcomes timing distortions on the signals from turbulence in the atmosphere and shows how next-generation atomic clocks at different locations could be linked wirelessly to improve distribution of time and frequency information and other applications See also http //www nist gov/pml/div686/time-043013 cfm www nist gov/pml/div686/time-043013 cfm Credit Talbott/NIST Disclaimer Any mention of commercial products within NIST web pages is for information only; it does not imply recommendation or endorsement by NIST Use of NIST Information These World Wide Web pages are provided as a public service by the National Institute of Standards and Technology NIST With the exception of material marked as copyrighted information presented on these pages is considered public information and may be distributed or copied Use of appropriate byline/photo/image credits is requested https //www flickr com/photos/usnistgov/8700924583/ Time Signals 2013-05-01 09 57 https //www flickr com/people/63059536 N06 National Institute of Standards and Technology PD-USGov National Institute of Standards and Technology https //flickr com/photos/63059536 N06/8700924583 2016-09-07 01 54 14 United States Government Work Uncategorized 2016 October 31 |
