Abstract

A new structure for the diagram of measurements synchronization using GPS modules for two or more spaced stations is proposed. To simplify the modeling, a set of sources of GPS clock signals is replaced with a virtual reference generator with certain phase instability. The stochastic model is developed for synchronization of multiple devices. The cumulant and stochastic differential equations for the synchronization model are solved. The performed computation experiments made it possible to identify the model parameters, including loop gain, and factors of conversion and inertia of the loop. Implementation of the results into the structure of broadband magnetotelluric station LEMI-423 significantly reduced a measurement error produced by clock signal instability.
