Abstract :
The National Measurement Institute, Australia has been developing methods for time and frequency transfer over optical fibre with an eye towards applications in radio-astronomy. We report here on a digital time-transfer system that uses pseudo-random noise-ranging and is implemented on a Field Programmable Gate Array. The system has demonstrated a time deviation of a few ps on a 100 km link.
