Analyzing the Calibration History of Radiometers for Determining Optimal Calibration Day(s)

This study investigates the effects of calibrating radiometers using one day or multiple cloudless days as recommended by ASTM and ISO standards. The results demonstrate good responsivity agreement with estimated uncertainty error bars over the years for various radiometers under various Broadband Outdoor Radiometer Calibration (BORCAL) events at both the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the Southern Great Plains facility. The BORCAL method appears to justify the use of a single calibration day with enough data points to attain repeatable calibration results.
