Abstract :
Comparisons of BSF time and UTC(TL) for time keeping have continued in Taiwan for years. A microwave two-way, time and frequency transfer experiment without using the spread spectrum technique performed between TL and BSF broadcast station is reported. The result showed that the stability was less than 5 ns.
