CLAES blocker filter rejection requirementsSome details of the calculations of out-of-band spectral rejection requirements for the CLAES blocker filters are described. For a particular blocker centered within an etalon bandpass, the signal to be expected when a particular etalon transmission peak is centered at the central wavelength of the blocker filter is calculated. This signal is compared with the total signal arising from all other transmission peaks within the etalon bandpass and all of the radiation from the entire spectrum outside of the etalon bandpass. The results for a few of the blocker filters are listed, and the design goals are compared with theoretical design results.
