8 On-orbit Improvements and Performance SD Screen Transmission ( SD ) and BRDF SD SDSM Screen Transmission ( SDSM ) Correction for Solar Vector Error in SDR Comparison of Solar and Lunar Calibration Modulated RSR more than two versions by different groups with independent effort 8

9 On-orbit Pre-launch SD Screen Transmission ( SD ) and BRDF SD Initial SD and SDSM LUTs derived from limited pre-launch measurements On-orbit improvements made using data collected during SC yaw maneuvers Latest improvements achieved by adding regular on-orbit calibration data to fill the gaps in yaws SD LUT Ratio On-orbit LUT: Larger range Better resolution Same wavelength 9

10 SDSM Screen Transmission ( SDSM ) SDSM PL_LUT SDSM Yaw_LUT SDSM New_LUT Improvements of SDSM Screen SDSM LUT => smooth SD degradation (H-factor) trend 10

11 Comparison of H- and F-factors derived from different LUTs PL LUT and New LUT YAW LUT and New LUT H: F: 11

12 Solar Vector Error (in SDR Common Geo Library) A mismatch of ECI (Earth-Centered Inertial) frames when computing the transformation to spacecraft frame library leads to a slight, but important (~0.2 deg.) error in the solar angles used in the RSB radiometric calibration. ΔF VISNIR ΔH ΔF SWIR The cos θ SD factor is used in the H- and F-factor calculations. 12

13 Comparison of Solar and Lunar Calibration Lines - SD Cal Symbols - Lunar Cal SD and lunar calibration made at the same angle of incidence (AOI) Large changes in NIR/SWIR response due to telescope mirror degradation Modulated RSR and fitted SD degradation applied Use of measured SD degradation reduces some seasonal variations in 1/F-factors 13

14 Number of Scans Used in Lunar Calibration Center 2 scans Center 4 scans Average and standard deviation of all individual scans 14

15 Detector-dependent vs Band-averaged Also examined are the mirror side differences and lunar irradiance retrieved using all detectors and all scans (over-sampling factor used) 15

16 On-orbit Modulated RSR 16

17 On-orbit Modulated RSR l dependent optics degradation DNB Small impact on bands with narrow bandwidths and small OOB responses; large impact on DNB (broad bandwidth) 17

18 Modulated RSR Impact on SD and Lunar Calibration Large changes at mission beginning Caution: use and comparison of solar and lunar F-factors for M1 and DNB 18

Challenging Issues Solar calibration Impact due OOB responses in SDSM and VIIRS spectral bands because of wavelength-dependent degradation Direct impact of SD degradation on RSR calibration Lunar calibration Improved lunar phase/libration correction needed 19
