The possibility of using time signals from an artificial satellite in the synchronization of two atomic clocks located at stations approximately 1000 km apart is examined. Time differences between the clocks on the ground would be determined by the comparison of the reception times of pulses emitted from an atomic clock on board the satellite and corrected for propagation delays during a pass of the satellite over both ground stations. Time differences computed from simulated observations of pulses from a satellite with orbital elements similar to those of the NTS 2 satellite, with an altitude of 26,561 km, reveal a possible clock synchronization accuracy of 10 nsec when white noise is introduced into the measurements and time pulses and a drift in the satellite clock operation is taken into account.
