In this research, we will develop a space-time information platform by networking “optical lattice clocks”, which improved the uncertainty of the atomic clocks used in GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) by three orders of magnitude. This platform will benefit future high-capacity network systems, navigation, and other services.
