There is. The paper "Ultra Stable Oscillators - Limits of GNSS
cohrerent integration" by Gagero and Borio[1] gives a nice overview
what you can acheive if you have a more stable oscillator.
Gaggeros master thesis[2] goes a bit further into the details of
how the experiment was setup and what results came out.

Why does it take years to find the answers to
