Popis: An analysis of the errors of the measuring optical power divider of laser radiation, which is used to transmit a unit of average power of high-intensity laser radiation and is structurally made in the form of a wedge, is carried out. The error of the division ratio, which affects the accuracy of the unit transmission, is determined. The estimation of the random component of the division coefficient error is carried out and it is shown that the proposed method for its determination, based on the rearrangement of the used measuring instruments, gives the most probable estimate. The error caused by the nonlinearity of the measuring instruments that determine the division coefficient is investigated, and its largest interval is estimated. It is shown that in the case of invariability of the conversion coefficients of the used measuring instruments on the laser radiation power, the method makes it possible to exclude the dependence of the error in determining the division coefficient on the mentioned coefficients, and in another case, to reduce their influence on the transmission error. The possibility of controlling the division factor of the divider by determining the control parameter and its confidence interval when transmitting a unit of radiation power is substantiated; a formula for calculating this interval in each measurement cycle is obtained. It is shown that the value of the parameter and the change in the confidence interval can be used to control the reliability of the transmission of the unit of power to the calibrated measuring instrument in real time.
