Aperture Description Conventions9.1 Since the efficiencies of retroreflectors are often r

25、apidlyvarying functions of the observation angle a and the rho angler, it is usually important to describe the apertures of the sourceand receiver that are to be used in a measurement. Thefollowing conventions for describing apertures are based on theassumptions that: (1) the luminance of the source

26、 in thedirection of the retroreflector is uniform over the sourceaperture stop, (2) the illumination axis passes through thecenter of the source aperture stop, ( 3) the responsivity of thereceiver in the direction of the retroreflector is uniform over thereceiver aperture stop, and (4) the observati

28、ar aperture, ei-ther source or receiver, has one side parallel to the observationhalf-plane, then its angular size should be described by givingfirst the angle subtended at the retroreflector center by the sideparallel to the observation half-plane and second the anglesubtended at retroreflector cen

29、ter by the side perpendicular tothe observation half-plane. For example, a 0.1 by 0.2rectangular aperture has its short side parallel to the observa-tion half-plane.10.
