Abstract
In 1980 a new pyrheliometric scale (World Radiometric Reference) will be introduced. This scale will be realized with higher accuracy than the previous one, therefore the accuracy of the transfer of the new scale could also be increased. In this paper a method is described for determining the circumsolar sky function which could be used to significantly decrease the systematic error caused by the circumsolar radiation during calibration of geometrically different pyrheliometers.
