Abstract
We have done the analysis of the year-long observational data taken from July 2012 to October 2013. In this chapter, we explain how to extract Lorentz violation parameters from the year-long data. Then, we show the results of our data analysis, and study the systematic uncertainties. Here, we do the data analysis in the framework of the spherical harmonic decomposition of the light speed anisotropy. However, we have also done the analysis in the framework of the Standard Model Extension. We only show the results here, and the details of the data analysis in the Standard Model Extension will be described in Sect. 7.1.
