Abstract
A method for simulating three types of noise in atomic clock is presented. For each noise type, one obtains the noise level from a plot of the conventional Allan variance, and we select a value to be the most reliable indication of the Allan variance, the value is taken as inputs to digital filter that is a specific recursive function to produce the random processes. The simulation is simple by computer, and it is useful for designing atomic clock before committing the system to a hardware realization.
