6 Time/Frequency Recovery  Raw (decimated) measurements from the Loran Data into the filter were stable.  No Corrections  Simply a measure of the Loran Time of Arrival from 8290-X (Gillette WY)  Output from the filter was very stable over the period after the internal clock was locked down  Standard Deviation was ~13nSec over the entire period  The TIC measurement was the difference between the receiver and UTC (Symm)  Note the RCVR “thought” it was holding the internal clock at UTC  It appears that after the clock stabilized, the rcvr did hold to within ~25nSec of UTC.

7 Time/Frequency Recovery

8 Rubidium Performance  Open Loop  Measured Rb performance against the received signal  3 Cesium the Transmitting Stations vs Internal Rb  Drift ~1.468uSec per day (9610-M)  Gillette was ~1.443uSec per day (-20nsec LPA)  Short term stability ~20nSec

9 System Testing  Tracking performance  SZC  ECD measurements  Signal Strength  Cross Rate Interference  E-Field & H-Field Antennas  Looking at the phasing on the H-Field  Orienting the antenna to the NORTH (Stationary) –Rotated the antenna from 0 to 359 degrees in 45 degree steps –Tracked very well

10 Next Steps  Optimize receiver gain  Provide Raw Data (I & Q) over Ethernet  User Interface  Web Interface  Front Panel Interface  Differential Reference Station  Loran Data Channel  Generating & forwarding corrections  Decoding the broadcasted corrections  Closing the loop (integrity)  1PPS Calibration  Tracking Status  Alarms  JAMFEST 2007 (5-9 Nov 2007)
