Abstract:

This paper evaluates the stability of three industrial cesium clocks located in different sites, comparing them via the common-view technique and using the three-cornered hat (TCH) method. Validation of the implementation is obtained by comparing results with Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and Rapid UTC values reported for the three cesium clocks involved. An enhanced TCH method is presented and implemented, yielding corrections up to 30% in the Allan deviation estimates. The main feature of the developed method is the possibility of computing the absolute stability of remote clocks at averaging times of about 2 h.
