Abstract

In this project we intend to carry out the distribution of atomic frequency standards through fiber-optic networks. The standards include the RF frequency and / or microwave derived from rubidium clocks, cesium, a GPS receiver, and / or hydrogen maser. We intend to use the Kyatera network, connecting points between Campinas (UNICAMP-IFGW and FEEC, IFGW and CPqD IFGW and PUCC) and Sao Carlos (IFGW-UNICAMP and IFSC-USP). The characterization of the transmission will be through of measurements of phase and frequency. (AU)
