Abstract
With present day technology the technique which provides the greatest precision in astrometric and geodetic measurement is Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) (Robertson, 1975; Dravskykh, 1981; Gubanov, 1983). The precision of present day astrometrical measurements by VLBI exceeds those of the best modern optical observations by an order and a half of magnitude and is capable of further improvement by the future development of phase stable, wide band, global networks and by the future deployment of VLBI antennas in space. Such precision of observation places the technique of VLBI well within the regime of special and general relativity. The present paper presents an analysis of relativistic effects on VLBI measurements with an accuracy of 0.0001 arc seconds.
