Abstract

Photometric passbands are usually characterised through laboratory measurements and once in operations they are refined with true observations of reference sources with known spectral energy distribution. This paper revises the methods to determine those passbands and discusses the limitations encountered. The passbands are not fully constrained by the reference sources used and the method presented here allows to evaluate which is the constrained and the unconstrained component of the passband.
