About the paperAbstract
The features of high-precision one-way laser ranging technique, the possibility of its use for the GLONASS time/frequency synchronization, as well as for the calibration and verification measurements performed by means of the RF technical facilities. A laser-based experimental system is presented for high-accuracy inflight calibration and comparison of GLONASS onboard and onground clocks, as well as for mutual synchronization of on-ground clocks at different far-away points. The system operation principle is based on comparison of a two-way satellite laser time-of-flight and one-way laser measurements. Parameters and methods of on-board and on-ground equipment calibration are given, as well as a data processing measurement algorithm. The expected measurement accuracy is also evaluated.
