Abstract
The DSN is currently preparing to monitor the stability of its clocks and frequency standards in the 64-meter net by means of VLBI. Since variations in the Earth’s rotation rate represent an error source to VLBI clock synchronization, we calculated the Allan Variance of the Earth rotation to find that, in a long-term sense at least, these variations do not noticeably increase the differential instability of two clocks as measured by Intercontinental VLBI. ATmi(t) = ATc(t) + Z, sin 6,
