Explore: Drift Rate

stochastic drift is the change of the average value of a stochastic (random) process. A related concept is the drift rate, which is the rate at which the

are accessible. All inertial navigation systems suffer from integration drift: small errors in the measurement of acceleration and angular velocity are

Clock drift refers to several related phenomena where a clock does not run at exactly the same rate as a reference clock. That is, after some time the

The apparent drift is predicted by ω sin Latitude and will thus be greatest over the poles. To counter for the effect of Earth rate drift a latitude nut

all four gyroscopes results in a geodetic drift rate of −6601.8±18.3 mas/yr and a frame-dragging drift rate of −37.2±7.2 mas/yr, in good agreement with
