Scanning beam solid angle (ΩSB) error budget, showing the bias and fractional error due to the residual time response (ΔΩτ), near sidelobes (ΔΩNSL) and solid angle colour correction (ΔΩCC).

Notes. The Monte Carlo error (ΔΩMC) includes noise and pointing uncertainty. The colour correction is the upper limit in solid angle change due to colour correction from a planet spectrum source (roughly ν2) to IRAS-convention (ν-1). The near sidelobe contribution of the nominal (maximal) near sidelobe envelopes is shown for the 100–353 GHz bands; there is no appreciable difference between the two in the sub-mm bands, due to the extremely high signal-to-noise of these data.
