The NOAA-21 VIIRS yaw maneuver operation was carried out in March 2023 over 15 scheduled orbits to characterize the three required input functions for the standard on-orbit RSB calibration pipeline. The characterization functions of the product of the bidirectional reflectance factors (BRFs) of the solar diffuser (SD) with the vignetting function (VF) of the SD screen (SDS) are derived for the two required outgoing directions from the SD to the RSBs and from the SD to the SDSM. The VFs for the attenuation screen placed in front of the Sun-view port are also derived with the yaw measurements.
