Abstract :
Describes an effort to produce an IEEE standard providing guidelines for standardized methods of defining, measuring and reporting environmental sensitivities of precision frequency generators. Aging, warm-up time and retrace are discussed. They are examined in connection with their definition, methods of reporting their size in a given device, and techniques of measurements
