MEASURAND       Luminous intensity

 

The individual measurements, xi, of the participating laboratories take the form of ratios which depend on the reference used at the pilot laboratory. This is cancelled out by normalization using the key comparison reference value, xR. This procedure leads to normalized individual measurements: xi / xR.

 

CCPR-K3.a

The key comparison reference value, xR, is calculated as the weighted average of the invidual results xi, weighted by the inverse square of the individual standard uncertainties, ui, with the application of a minimum cutoff of 0.25%. The INTI and the BIPM are excluded from the calculation of xR. The standard uncertainty of xR is uR = 0.09 %. It is negligible compared to the ui values.

The degree of equivalence of each laboratory with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms: Di = (xi - xR) / xR and Ui, its expanded uncertainty
(k = 2), both expressed in relative units. Ui = 2ui.

 

Linking CCPR-K3.a.1 to CCPR-K3.a

The link to the key comparison CCPR-K3.a is made though CSIRO-NML (now NMIA) that participated in both comparisons, see Section 9 of the CCPR-K3.a.1 Final Report.

 

Linking EURAMET.PR-K3.a to CCPR-K3.a

The link to the key comparison CCPR-K3.a is realized through the common participation of LNE-INM/Cnam, INRiM (named "BNM-INM" and "IEN" at the time of the CCPR key comparison) and PTB that participated in both comparisons, see EURAMET.PR-K3.a Final Report.

 

Linking EURAMET.PR-K3.a.1 to CCPR-K3.a

The link to the key comparison CCPR-K3.a is realized through the common participation of LNE see EURAMET.PR-K3.a.1 Final Report.

 

Linking COOMET.PR-K3.a to CCPR-K3.a

The link to the key comparison CCPR-K3.a is realized through the common participation of SMU and VNIIOFI, see COOMET.PR-K3.a Final Report.
