Abstract
The timing equation is the basic theory of dealing with the observable data of pulsar. The pulse timing model is studied; With analyzing the existing conclusions about timing equations, the transformation equation of pulsar photon time of arrive in 1PN approximation is derived, and the classic transformation equations are compared with; the transformation of the proper time from the spacecraft to TCB is also obtained.
