Uncertainty evaluation for linking a bilateral key comparison with the corresponding CIPM key comparison

Abstract: A method for evaluating the uncertainty in linking a bilateral key comparison to another key comparison with several participants is presented theoretically and demonstrated with an actual comparison. Equations are derived for the uncertainties of the unilateral and mutual degrees of equivalence for the linked participant in the bilateral comparison. It is shown that the uncertainty components related to uncorrelated effects in the measurements of the linking participant play a critical role in determining the… Show more

“…The measurement uncertainty reported by the linking participant during the key comparison has two components u 2 i = u 2 uc,i + u 2 cor,i due to random and correlated sources of error, respectively. However, u uc,i affects the uncertainty of the key comparison reference value x ref , making the terms −X ref and E r,i dependent on each other in equation (7).…”

“…Parameter u i,r,BC describes the uncertainty associated with random effects for the link laboratory in the bilateral comparison and s BC the transfer uncertainty of the bilateral comparison. The original form of equation ( 15) in [2] was used in [1] to link the results of a bilateral key comparison of spectral irradiance to the corresponding CCPR key comparison. When using the correct equation, the largest reduction in the uncertainty of the linked participant's degrees of equivalence is given by a factor of 0.986 at the 290 nm wavelength.…”
