摘要: Radio interferometry with independent high-precision clocks, without a high-frequency communication channel between the stations, is now possibility. It allows stations to be as far apart earth can accommodate. This then makes radio band from 10- 60-centimeters wavelength best frequency range for angular measurements, since variability of atmosphere less disturbing there than in optical band.
