Abstract :
The time transfer link between NIM and PTB was for the first time calibrated using a travelling GPS receiver developed by NIM. The calibration uncertainty was estimated to about 2 ns. The result obtained could be compared to the result derived from differential calibrations made by BIPM in previous years. Both results agree well within 1 ns.
