Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the author's experiment broadcasting time and frequency information from geostationary satellites that cover 40% of the earth's surface. These satellites, such as NASA's ATS-3, provided near-instantaneous time data with delays of about half a second, which was far more accurate than existing methods using terrestrial radio stations broadcasting at high frequencies. The author explains the motivations behind using the VHF transponder on the ATS-3 satellite, the various challenges involved, and the benefits, such as the ability to synchronize time across the continents to accuracy levels of microseconds. The experiment demonstrated a ground-breaking level of performance as an experimental space-to-earth dissemination service, informing the design of future systems that would provide time to users over a permanent service. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332911653_0
