European Laser Time Transfer (ELT) - System delays calibration
Original language description
The laser time transfer is an attractive technique providing the capability of time transfer ground to space and ground to ground with picosecond precision and several picoseconds accuracy. The technique is relying on the existing ground based infrastructure used for satellite laser ranging (SLR). In order to reach the ultimate precision and accuracy the ground systems participating in time transfer have to be properly calibrated for this purpose. The new tool ?ELT Calibration Device? is currently underconstruction. The device is planned to be operated successively on the participating SLR stations to characterize the ground segment timing performance prior to the mission launch. The Calibration Device is simulating the ELT operation to some extent, thus the calibration campaign will serve as an ?exercise? before the real flying hardware will be in operation. The outputs of the calibration campaigns can be used in other laser time transfer missions, as well. The basic concept of this
