Within the recent CGSIC proceedings is the overview presentation by
Lewandowski of the BIPM.

It includes one page plotting the various satellite time scales and
another showing the Tower of Babel.
With gratitude toward that presentation and the Peoples Republic of
China I have enhanced my web pages to include Compass or BeiDou System
Time (BST) as one of what are now three discernibly distinct broadcast
time scales for navigation which run parallel to the original
Ephemeris/Terrestrial Time.

This plot is, of course, not making it clear that GPS time and Galileo
System time (and perhaps others yet to come) are (at nanosecond
precision) not actually the same time scale.
There are more...
GLONASS timescale is a three-hour offset from UTC(SU), see GLONASS ICD.
WAAS, EGNOS and MSAS have their own timescales, maintained to be
roughtly that of GPS.
Cheers,
Magnus
