Abstract:	Unlike GPS, the GLONASS P-code is broadly accessible. This paper discuss GLONASS capabilities and prospects in terms of precise time transfer. We have tested GLONASS common-view time transfer using the C/A- and P-code, over time links varying in length from about 800 km to 9200 km. The raw GPS and GLONASS data were collected using 3S Navigation receivers, and were corrected using IGS precise orbit data and IGS ionosphere maps. It is proposed that GLONASS time links be calculated monthly, initially as backup links for TAI calculation, and later as possible official time links.
