INTERIM RESULTS FROM THE CHARACTERIZATION TESTING OF THE ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT (EDM) RUBIDIUM CLOCKS FOR SATELLITE APPLICATIONS

Edward D. Powers, Jr., Fredrick Danzy

Abstract: This paper presents some interim results from the environmental testing program to evaluate the Engineering Design Model (EDM) of the EG&G Spaceborne Rubidium Clock. This effort is in support of the GPS BLOCK IIR program and is intended to characterize the performance of EG&G design for BLOCK IIR satellite applications. Two EG&G EDM units are currently under test at NRL Clock Test Facility to measure the long-term frequency stability, drift, and frequency versus temperature characteristics.
