Abstract :
In the Asia-Pacific Rim region, the two-way satellite time and frequency transfer (TWSTFT) links between 6 Labs, using multi-channel time transfer modems, have composed a time-transfer network. To fully utilize the data of TWSTFT network and improve the short-term stability of TWSTFT, a feasible method of processing data is proposed. We perform data analysis with practical time transfer data, and the results show that it is an effective method to improve the TWSTFT short-term stability.
