Abstract
This paper presents details of a new close-match solar simulator developed for DERA´s Space Power Laboratory for the accurate characterisation of space power multijunction solar cells. The authors present data on the simulator measurements of dual and triple junction solar cells. The measurements are compared with those made under less ideal spectral conditions
