Audience:
|
The
audience is composed of mathematicians, engineers, metrologists,
scientists, laboratory technicians, educators, managers, and planners
who need to know about precise timing, low phase-noise oscillators
or amplifiers, calibrations, or traceability. It is particularly
appropriate for those who are or might be responsible for specifying
or measuring oscillator or timing performance. |
|
Format:
|
Seminar. |
|
Purpose:
|
Expert
lecturers will teach fundamentals in time and frequency metrology
and provide a forum for your questions and problems involving time
and frequency applications. |
|
Topic:
|
New
topics for 2007 include - Lectures on chip-scale atomic clocks;
improvements and alternatives to GPS; low noise optical oscillators;
oscillator and amplifier arrays; PM-noise reduction techniques;
and low-noise frequency synthesis using femtosecond-comb lasers.
Also
- Time and frequency data analysis; instrumentation for frequency,
time, and phase noise measurements; theory of operation of quartz
oscillators, CS and Rb standards, and new optical domain oscillators;
prediction methodologies; verifying traceability and calibrations;
use of GPS; NIST calibrations services. |
