The method, structure, ideology and orbital conditions of the devices design for radiometric calibration by Sun of the polarimeters in the Earth orbit is considered, as well as the disadvantages and advantages of the elements that are the basis of the calibration unit, and the materials from which these elements are usually made. The illumination configurations of the working element of the calibration unit for the scanning polarimeter (ScanPol) radiometric calibration in different possible ways of construction, in different parts of the orbit on-board the YuzhSat satellite platform are analyzed. The satellite orbit areas are indicated, in which the conditions of illumination of the working element of the unit are optimal in terms of the ratio of the angles of input/observation, and minimization of the light component caused by the reflection of the Earth surface, atmosphere and elements of the ScanPol and satellite structures. The results are necessary for the development of the optimal design of the radiometric calibration unit for the ScanPol polarimeter in-orbit calibration and will allow to provide the necessary radiometric accuracy of the aerosol data and their stability during the space mission Aerosol-UA.
