Phase coherent VLBI using a satellite linkThe results from experiments using the Hermes (formerly CTS) communications satellite to provide a local oscillator and data link between two antennas are presented. The techniques used to compensate for the satellite motion and translation oscillator are described. Plans for a series of three station experiments to measure UT and polar motion using the ANIK-B satellite to synchronize the local oscillators are discussed.
