Coasting mode
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coasting mode is defined in Federal Standard 1037C as a specific timing mode in timing-dependent system.
It is defined as a free-running operational timing mode in which continuous or periodic measurement of clock error, i.e., of timing error, is not made.
Operation in the coasting mode may be extended for a period of time by using clock-error data or clock-correction data (obtained during a prior period of operation in the tracking mode) to estimate clock corrections.[1]
