Comments on the Terrestrial Pole of Reference, the Origin of the Longitudes, and on the Definition of UT1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The definition of a terrestrial reference pole (TRP) and of a Terrestrial Longitude Origin (TLO), by fixing the stations coordinates of an adopted network seems unrealistic. It is proposed that TRP and TLO be the realized origins of some specified service working in accordance with some stated principles. It is also proposed to clarify the definition of UT1 and to base it on some physical properties.
