We used the cosine smear only for leap 34. The smears for leaps 35 and 36 were linear (https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2015/05/Got-a-second-A-leap-second-that-is-Be-ready-for-June-30th.html). The linear smear deals with the leap by having only two frequency changes (instead of an infinite number), so it's admirably simple. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
