A Modem with a Fiber-Optic Communication Line for Dissemination of Frequency and Time Reference Signals

Resumo

The features of a multichannel modem that has been developed for transmission of frequency and time reference signals on a fiber-optic communication line with phase instability compensation are examined. Its capabilities for transmitting signals of reference frequencies of active hydrogen masers (such as the Ch1-1003M), we well as a 1 PPS signal with an error of synchronization no greater than 250 psec over 100 km without the use of optical amplifiers are assessed. The results of experimental verification of the metrological characteristics of the modem are given.
