Abstract

A study has been made of frequency standards that are potentially useful to the DSN in the 1980s. A combination of several devices that have inherently good performance over different averaging time regimes is recommended. This combination consists of: a quartz oscillator for short-term, either a quartz oscillator or active hydrogen maser for medium-term, and a passive hydrogen maser or cesium standard for long-term stability.
