I performed all the calibrations indoor and whenever i am testing it in outdoor(both under direct sunlight and opposite) ,it is always detecting some particle without any interference.Do i need to perform calibrations again in outdoor?

the crosstalk calibration is for how many photons hit your coverglass and bounce off. That does not change outdoors.

The offset calibration likewise does not change. It's accounting for a phase shift in the PLL that happened during re-flow.

So no, once calibrated you should be good.
