Abstract :
The reviews and prospects for radiometer calibration research of BIRMM (Beijing Radio Institute of Metrology and Measurement) are presented in this paper. The paper´s interests are concentrated on three principal parts as follows. Firstly, the timetable about research for radiometer calibration target is shown in a figure according to time sequence since 1995. Second, the traceability link for calibration targets, including their operational theory, is introduced in the section III and section IV concisely. Finally, the discussion about two key points of radiometer calibration and summary based on content above are presented in the end.
