Scientific paper
The work performed to ensure the Hipparcos catalog optimal link, to both the radio reference frame and a quasi inertial frame, is reported. The review of the observational proposals and the identification of shortcomings are effectuated. Two kinds of links are considered: the coordinates at a state epoch, and the proper motions. The proper motions are measured relative to extragalactic objects. The methods applied by the input catalog (INCA) working group include the direct observations by Hipparcos, the use of a Hubble space telescope, and the direct photography established by a ground based link.
