Bistatic radar is a radar system comprising a transmitter and receiver that are separated by a distance comparable to the expected target distance. Conversely, a conventional radar in which the transmitter and receiver are co-located is called a monostatic radar . [ 1 ]
When an aircraft passed through the space between the stations, some of the signal was reflected off the aircraft and back to the receiver. This produces a heterodyne effect that is easily detectable using simple electronics. [2] Today, this style of operation is known as a forward scatter bistatic radar. [3]
GNSS reflectometry is a bi-static radar, where transmitter and receiver are separated by a significant distance. Since in GNSS reflectometry one receiver simultaneously can track multiple transmitters (i.e. GNSS satellites), the system also has the nature of multi-static radar.
The study used "bistatic" radar data collected during Cassini flybys of Titan, three in 2014 and one in 2016. Cassini aimed a radio beam at targets on Titan's surface, which then reflected toward ...
Using radar measurements, the French Air and Space Force is able to spot satellites orbiting the Earth and determine their orbit. The GRAVES system took 15 years to develop, and became operational in November, 2005. [2] GRAVES is also a contributing system to the European Space Agency's Space Situational Awareness Programme (SSA). [3]
A multistatic radar system. A multistatic radar system contains multiple spatially diverse monostatic radar or bistatic radar components with a shared area of coverage. An important distinction of systems based on these individual radar geometries is the added requirement for some level of data fusion to take place between component parts.
The "Bistatic Radar Experiment", improvised during the mission, was designed to look for evidence of lunar water at the Moon's poles. Radio signals from the Clementine probe's transmitter were directed towards the Moon's north and south polar regions and their reflections detected by Deep Space Network receivers on Earth.
Bistatic radars use separated transmitters and receivers, providing indication of objects moving between the two antennas. Pages in category "Bistatic radars" The following 9 pages are in this category, out of 9 total.
