| Source of uncertainty | Correction‐based model | Analytical model |
|---|---|---|
| ROF | 0.5% | 1.5%a |
| SOBPF | 0.5% | |
| RSF | 1.0% | |
| ISFOCF | 0.5% | 0.5% |
| OCR | 1.0% | 1.0% |
| FSF | ||
| Large field (>5 × 5 cm2) | 1.0% | 1.0% |
| Small field (≤5 × 5 cm2) | Up to 3.0% | Up to 3.0% |
| GACF | 0.5% | 0.5% |
| Total (error propagation) |
2.0% for large field ~3.5% for small field |
