SI Definition, Clocks and Time Scales I
- Patrizia Tavella
The Consultative Committee for Time and Frequency (CCTF) established a Task Force [1] in 2020 to update the roadmap towards the redefinition of the SI second, following a first roadmap agreed in 2016. This paper illustrates the work of the entire task force [2] formed by about 40 people repre-senting the CCTF countries, with some additional experts.
We will present real-time optically steered timescales generated at the same time at OP and NPL. After a detailed description of the experimental chains, we will present the implemented algorithms for outlier filtering and frequency steering estimations. We will then analyse the performance of the experimental timescales based on local comparison against the local UTC(k) and remote comparisons...
