  • Five Years of VLF Worldwide Comparison of Atomic Frequency Standards
    RADIO SCIENCE, Vol. 2 (New Series), No. 6, June 1967 Five Years of VLF Worldwide Comparison of Atomic Frequency Standards B. E. Blair,' E. 1. Crow,2 and A. H. Morgan (Received January 19, 1967) The VLF radio broadcasts of GBR(16.0 kHz), NBA(18.0 or 24.0 kHz), and NSS(21.4 kHz) have enabled worldwide comparisons of atomic frequency standards to parts in 1O'O when received over varied paths and at distances up to 9000 or more kilometers. This paper summarizes a statistical analysis of such comparison data from laboratories in England, France, Switzerland, Sweden, Russia, Japan, Canada, and the United States during the 5-year period 1961-1965. The basic data are dif- ferences in 24-hr average frequencies between the local atomic standard and the received VLF radio signal expressed as parts in 10"'. The analysis of the more recent data finds the receiving laboratory standard deviations, &, and the transmission standard deviation, ?, to be a few parts in 10". Averag- ing frequencies over an increasing number of days has the effect of reducing iUi and ? to some extent. The variation of the & with propagation distance is studied. The VLF-LF long-term mean differences between standards are compared with the recent portable clock tests, and they agree to parts in IO". 1.

Green bacteria are introduced in Chapter 1 and include chlorophototrophic members of the phyla Chlorobi, Chloroflexi, and Acidobacteria. The green bacteria are defined by their use of chlorosomes for light harvesting. Chlorosomes contain thousands of unique chlorin molecules, known as bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) c, d, e, or f, which are arranged in supramolecular aggregates. Additionally, all green bacteria can synthesize BChl a, the and green members of the phyla Chlorobi and Acidobacteria can synthesize chlorophyll (Chl) a.

  • Time Signal Stations 1By Michael A
    122 Time Signal Stations 1By Michael A. Lombardi I occasionally talk to people who can’t believe that some radio stations exist solely to transmit accurate time. While they wouldn’t poke fun at the Weather Channel or even a radio station that plays nothing but Garth Brooks records (imagine that), people often make jokes about time signal stations. They’ll ask “Doesn’t the programming get a little boring?” or “How does the announcer stay awake?” There have even been parodies of time signal stations. A recent Internet spoof of WWV contained zingers like “we’ll be back with the time on WWV in just a minute, but first, here’s another minute”. An episode of the animated Power Puff Girls joined in the fun with a skit featuring a TV announcer named Sonny Dial who does promos for upcoming time announcements -- “Welcome to the Time Channel where we give you up-to- the-minute time, twenty-four hours a day. Up next, the current time!” Of course, after the laughter dies down, we all realize the importance of keeping accurate time. We live in the era of Internet FAQs [frequently asked questions], but the most frequently asked question in the real world is still “What time is it?” You might be surprised to learn that time signal stations have been answering this question for more than 100 years, making the transmission of time one of radio’s first applications, and still one of the most important. Today, you can buy inexpensive radio controlled clocks that never need to be set, and some of us wear them on our wrists.

ITU-R TF.768-2 The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) the continuing need in all parts of the world for readily available standard frequency and time reference signals that are internationally coordinated; b) the advantages offered by radio broadcasts of standard time and frequency signals in terms of wide coverage, ease and reliability of reception, achievable level of accuracy as received, and the wide availability of relatively inexpensive receiving equipment; c) that Article 33 of the Radio Regulations (RR) is considering the coordination of the establishment and operation of services of standard-frequency and time-signal dissemination on a worldwide basis; d) that a number of stations are now regularly emitting standard frequencies and time signals in the bands allocated by this Conference and that additional stations provide similar services using other frequency bands; e) that these services operate in accordance with Recommendation ITU-R TF.460 which establishes the internationally coordinated UTC time system; f) that other broadcasts exist which, although designed primarily for other functions such as navigation or communications, emit highly stabilized carrier frequencies and/or precise time signals that can be very useful in time and frequency applications, recommends 1 that, for applications requiring stable and accurate time and frequency reference signals that are traceable to the internationally coordinated UTC system, serious consideration be given to the use of one or more of the broadcast services listed and described in Annex 1; 2 that administrations responsible for the various broadcast services included in Annex 2 make every effort to update the information given whenever changes occur.

  • Dispersion Compensation Module
    www.vialite.com +44 (0)1793 784389 [email protected] +1 (855) 4-VIALITE [email protected] ViaLiteHD – Dispersion Compensation Module Dispersion Compensation Module (DCM) 1U Rack chassis Standard lengths and customer specific Compatible with any RF frequency SC/APC as standard DCM Standard 5-year warranty A DCM/Dispersion Compensation Fiber (DCF) provides fixed chromatic dispersion compensation for diverse and disaster recovery DWDM networks. ViaLiteHD DCMs are purely passive modules based on the ITU G.652 standard to provide negative dispersion for DWDM transmission systems, increasing transmission range and decreasing BER of optical links. It can be used to address dispersion on standard single mode optical fiber (SMF) across the entire C-Band and L-Band range. The DCMs are available as part of ViaLite’s Ka-Band diversity antenna system. Each DCM can be supplied in 5 km increments, supporting medium to long distance fiber optic systems ranging from 30 km to 600 km. Advantages Formats Low Insertion loss 1U Chassis 19” rack mountable Passive device Related Products Low polarization mode dispersion DWDM Mux/De-Mux Excellent performance price ratio DWDM EDFA’s and Boosters Signal performance improvements Delay Lines L-Band HTS 700-2450 MHz Applications Fixed satcom earth stations and teleports Ka-Band diversity systems L-Band long distance links G.652 100% C-Band compensation fiber Long distance DWDM optimization CATV Systems ViaLite System Designer For complex designs where multiple DWDM products are required the System Designer tool is essential for predicting and validating performance results. The software uses a drag and drop approach from a pallet of products.
