Abstract

We report on the time reference system of Compass global satellite navigation system and its interoperation with other GNSS’s. China has sent three satellites into geostationary orbit since 2000, and Compass Navigation Test System has been established. Compass time reference, named as BDT, is based on Atomic time, BDT is derived from the atomic clock ensemble in Compass ground control centre, and be traced to the international time, UTC. Interoperability is one of the most important aspect in the design of Compass timing system, a solution of time differences determination among BDT and other GNSS time scales are introduced in this paper.
