Abstract
A Two Way Satellite Time Transfer (TWSTT) network in the Pacific rim region is under construction to contribute to the International Atomic Time (TAI). Four major Time and Frequency Institutes in this region have been conducting long term TWSTT experiments. In addition to these institutes, several ones in this region are planning to join this TWSTT network.
