==The Importance of GPS Derived Timing==

GPS as a source of timing is a key component in not just synrchonizationsynchronization in telecommunications but to critical infrastructure in general <ref>http://www.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=ADA503921</ref>. Of the 18 CIKR sectors, 15 use GPS derived timing to function correctly <ref>http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/sww/SWW_2011_Presentations/Wed_830/GPS-PNTTimingStudy-SpaceWeather4-27.pptx</ref>

CIKR means Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources

Synchronization is important in communications
