We present measurements regarding the long-term frequency instability of NIST CSAC physics packages. Changes of the clock frequency are caused mainly through
The problem of signal integrity for GPS satellites is discussed. In particular, there is a need for characterizing peak deviation of GPS clocks from prediction

The Sistema Interamericano de Metrologia (SIM) consists of national metrology institutes (NMIs) located in all 34 member nations of the Organization of American
The ionosphere-free code (P3) GPS time transfer uses the dual-frequency measurements from GPS geodetic receivers to minimize the errors in the ionospheric delay
A new correlation for two-phase flow pressure drop in 180? return bends is proposed based on a total of 241 experimental data points for R-22 and R-410A from

In this work, we describe radiometric platforms able to produce realistic spectral distributions and spatial scenes for the development of application-specific
The fingerprint datasets in many cases may exceed millions of samples. Thus, the needed size of a biometric evaluation test sample is an important issue in
Liquid agent transport was investigated around an unheated and heated cylinder (to a near-surface temperature of approximately 423 K) under ambient conditions
A compact Josephson voltage standard (CJVS) was constructed using a fixed microwave frequency at 76.76 GHz. The transportability of the CJVS makes in-situ JVS
