In order to estimate the ambient water concentration of contaminants sampled by a POCIS device, there must be available calibration data applicable for in situ conditions regarding the target compound.
12.
However, although the performance advantages of MUSIC are substantial, they are achieved at a cost in computation ( searching over parameter space ) and storage ( of array calibration data ).
13.
Typically the calibration data can be entered on the instrument front panel, as well as loaded from a medium such as floppy disk or USB stick, or down a bus such as USB or GPIB.
14.
Analysis of the pre-flight x-ray throughput calibration data indicates that the peak on-axis effective collecting area for each telescope's response function ranges from 0.25 to 0.05 cm2.
15.
During the decoding process, there is a necessary condition : The number of undamaged calibration data blocks have to be greater than or equal to the number of the original data blocks that missing, if not, it cannot be repaired.
