4.4.3.3 Accuracy

The accuracy for this method largely depends on the spacing between the calibration points, and can be estimated using Equation 8.

Figure 4-23, Figure 4-24, and Figure 4-25 each show an example of a possible error curve for this setup with a different number of calibration points.
