The X-Ray Telescope (XRT) aboard Hinode satellite is a grazing incidence telescope to observe all the coronal features with a wide temperature range from less than 1MK to more than 10MK. And the XRT has 9 X-ray analysis filters which are optimized to observed the almost whole coronal plasma and to derived the coronal temperature distribution. Meanwhile, the GOES13 satellite carries a Solar X-ray Imager (SXI) to monitor the solar X-rays. The SXI is also a grazing incidence telescope and has 7 X-ray filters. The XRT and SXI are similar telescopes to observe the dynamic solar corona. On 24 Nov 2006, the XRT and SXI-team performed the simultaneous observation for the cross calibration between XRT and SXI. In this study, we analyzed this data set and checked the actual characteristics of each X-ray analysis filter.
