Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for providing accurate local time for one or more timed devices that depend on such time for operation. In one embodiment, a Satellite Positioning System (SATPS), such as GPS or GLONASS, provides the time signal information. In another embodiment, the time signal information is provided by telecommunication means, such as a telephone, cellular telephone or similar apparatus. The local time signal is distributed by a time signal distribution module to one or more timed devices by a wire or transmission line, by radio waves, or by direct contact with an input terminal of a timed device. The time signal distribution module may be a single station, a master station for a system of timed devices, or a portable module that can be moved from one timed device to the next.
