I cannot take credit for it...It wasn't actually my idea..

No we wont...because as Wiki points out, it is top secret....

...but the answer is pretty obvious. Each wavelength is actually 
'labelled' so that its number can be matched against the label of the 
wave received at the instant the second one was sent....simple, eh? It 
gives the number of absolute wavelengths in the signal directly. The 
receiver's clock error must be corrected out as usual.

Acceptance of good old BaTh has improved the GPS accuracy immensely!

The 'base' idea is another issue...it is a good idea...
