Abstract. A promising approach to solving the problem of time scale synchronization using three mobile radio telescopes is proposed. Results of calculating the inaccuracy of time scale formation of one mobile radio telescope and of time scales of two others participating in the observation, are presented. The proposed algorithm makes it possible to estimate the error in the formation of a local time scale and serves as a backup for increasing the stability of coordinate-time and navigation support system functioning.

Keywords: time scale correction, remote synchronizers, mobile radio telescope
