Abstract :
This paper deals with some test which are currently under way at the IEN in Italy with the aim of identifying a suitable algorithm for steering the local UTC(IEN) to the UTC. The tests are performed with the IEN experimental data of commercial cesium clock for a period of about 2 years and of H-Maser clock for a period of about 3 months.
