Abstract :
This paper reviews the requirements on GNSS receiver setups for precise time and frequency transfer; these concern the receiver itself, the GNSS measurements, the antenna and cables used in the full setup. Concerning the receiver, we show that for a high level scientific use of a GNSS receiver within the frame of timing applications, it is essential that certain time delay related parameters be described in detail by the manufacturer.
