Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Japan has started a project of Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS)
since FY2003. QZSS will be highly useful not only for communications
but for complement of the modernized GPS in urban canyon and mountainous
area with its high visibility brought out by its inclined orbits.
National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Japan
(NICT) is to develop a Space-borne Hydrogen Maser (SHM) and time
management system, and carry out experiments using them. A breadboard
model (BBM) of the SHM was developed to overcome the issues such as
size, weight and life time, which are required in space environment.
Basic design was carried out for time management system to achieve nano
second level time transfer. The design and the manufacturing of the
engineering models (EM) of the on-board equipment have been carried out
since 2004. The first satellite is planned to be launched in FY 2008.
