Abstract

After the description of the detectors used as standards for radiometric measurements at the Institut National de Metrologie (INM) and the designation of their range of use, the method which is used to calibrate the transfer standard detectors, for the measurement in the field of optical fiber telecommunications is described. This method is divided in four successive steps. To finish with, the study of the main components of the uncertainty budget is done.
