Abstract :
An updated review of on-orbit measurements for multiple pFET dosimeters at GEO for 1998-2007 time period indicates excellent sensor performance over a range of dose rates and yields valuable information regarding space environment model (AE-8, AE-9, IGE-2006, and POLE)/transport tool validation.
