To derive the absolute power falling on the detector it is necessary to
remove the detector dark signal. For chopped measurements where only the
signal difference matters, the dark signal correction is in principle not
required. In the Cal G file the unit for the detector dark currents is V/s.
The dark signal depends on the orbital phase of the satellite during the observation like the detector responsivity, but is not influenced by the curing in the handover window.
