Prospects of two-way international time scale comparisons
Abstract
The two way time comparison technique is introduced, and the effects of non-reciprocity are discussed. The results obtained to this point are reported. The support and activities of international bodies are described, and the prospects of using a satellite for both regional use and transatlantic use in North America and western Europe are given.
