Description
The derivation of reliable proton and electron fluxes using radiation monitor data is often a cumbersome task. In this paper, we present various techniques that have been developed and applied for the calculation and the cross-calibration of energetic particle fluxes. These techniques include using Singular Value Decomposition, Neural Network, Bow-Tie, Correlative analysis to calibrate the counts to fluxes, methods to determine channel effective energies and cross calibration methods that lead to the production of reliable level 2 datasets. Characteristic examples that emerged from the application of these techniques on various instruments, such as ESA/SREM, Galileo/EMU, Himawari/SEDA, ALPHASAT/MFS and NOAA/GOES/EPS are presented and discussed.
