Two methods are applied to determine the dust removal efficiency (DRE) of the EDS on lunar simulant particles: weighing and solar cell efficiency.

The DRE is calculated by comparing the dust mass remaining on the surface before and after EDS activation, which represents the quantity of dust that remains on the effective area of the EDS, i.e. the
