Military applications of high accuracy frequency standards and clocks

Abstract: The application of frequency control and timing devices in modern military electronics systems is reviewed. The manner in which the stability and accuracy of these devices impact the performance of military communication, navigation, surveillance, electronic warfare, missile guidance, and identification-friend-or-foe (IFF) systems is discussed.

“…As communications facilities develop and informationcontent transfer grows, compact frequency references are becoming increasingly important for a variety of military and civilian applications [1,2]. For many of these applications, a clock with small device volume, low power consumption, low market cost and long-term stability is required.…”

“…Such miniaturized clocks can easily be integrated into scientific and consumer electronics and could be used in harsh external environments. Devices benefiting include those for wireless communication and GPS navigation (with improved tolerance to jamming) [36]. In addition, the clock's center frequency of 2.870 GHz could enable a wide-bandwidth data rate in next-generation cellular communications (f 40 GHz).…”

“…One of the common signal processing requirements these varied applications share is the need for very precise timing. Doppler radars require very low phase noise clock sources in order to minimize uncertainty of objects that are being tracked [1]. As optical digital networks have been shown to transmit an aggregate of 10 Tb/s of data [2], they require low phase noise clocks for multiplexing the data streams on the entire network.…”
