An Automatic Data Recording System for time Transfer Via TV Network

The utilization of TV network for precise time-transfer is very well-known. TV telecast in India is usually in the evening hours which limits the extensive utilization of the technique, mainly because of the manning problem. National Physical Laboratory, has developed an automatic recording system to facilitate the data taking. This system automatically switches on the TV receiver at the pre-programmed time, takes the measurements, stores data in the memory cell and switches off the TV after the measurements are over. This will encourage the use of time transfer via TV network in India.
