2 Outline 1. Introduction 2. Monochromator-based (SpMA) and laser-based (T-SIRCUS) calibration methods Different approaches to obtain absolute spectral responsivity (ASR) and relative spectral responsivity (RSR) for RSB from M1 to M7 3. Characterization results of J1 VIIRS RSB sensors using two methods I. Detector-to-detector RSR variation at each band II. Spatial dependence of bandwidth, centroid/central wavelength III. Analysis of cross talk influence on band shape using complementary results from two calibration methods 4. Verification of RC2 test results 5. Conclusions

10 Absolute spectral response (ASR) and relative spectral response (RSR) using two calibration methods 1. SpMA (spectral resolution: 2 nm, all the bands) Obtain RSR with relative spectral output (RSO) of trap Si detector, and Pyroelectric detector, but additional absolute radiance measurements (RC2) needed to determine ASR RSR(λ) = dn(λ )/RSO(λ) ===>> ASR(λ) Slit illumination rule out cross-talks from other bands 2. T-SIRCUS (spectral resolution: < 0.01 nm, VISNIR of RSB) Obtain ASR with a uniform source by comparing with a transfer radiance meter, and normalize ASR to get RSR ASR(λ) = dn(λ )/L(λ) ===>> RSR(λ) = ASR(λ)/ASR max Flood illumination close to practical operation with cross-talks from other bands T-SIRCUS SpMA Slit image ASR: dn/(w m -2 Sr -1 ) VIIRS VisNIR focal plane
