Abstract
We have used carrier phase data from geodetic GPS receivers, driven by atom ic clocks, and belonging to the IGS network, to demonstrate the capabilitie s of the GPS carrier phases for frequency transfer. On a regional baseline, we obtained frequency stabilities of 2.10(-15) Over 4 h through a proper m odeling of the tropospheric refraction and by keeping ambient temperature v ariations under control.
