Yes, on-board clock accuracy is the limiting factor here.
- manquer 6y agoPerhaps something like NTP could be used to keep the clock accurately in sync to the precision required? I mean do you need the atomic clock to be onboard ? could there not some error correction with multiple satellites to handle skew problems ?
- gpm 6y agoA light nanosecond is 0.3m (1ft), I know no more than you do about the tech, but it seems plausible that NTP isn't accurate enough.
- manquer 6y agowell i didn't mean literally NTP itself, but a similar sync protocol and error correction, it may not be the best approach obviously or give best precision..just that it could made to work ?
