Description

Explore the science of precision with An Introduction to Modern Timekeeping and Time Transfer from the Springer Series in Measurement Science and Technology. This comprehensive text provides a systematic look at how time is defined and measured in the modern era. Readers will trace the evolution of timekeeping from pre-Atomic Era methods to the implementation of the atomic clock. The book covers essential technical concepts including frequency stability and measurement uncertainty. It also addresses modern digital requirements through computer network time-synchronization protocols like Network Time Protocol (NTP) and Precise Time Protocol (PTP). Additionally, the text covers the fundamental mechanics of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). This book serves as a detailed resource for understanding the technology that powers modern global synchronization.
