The space-based SIRA (Solar Imaging Radio Array) will provide a powerful capability to track high energy particles from solar flare and CME sites through interplanetary/heliospheric space all the way to Earth. Together with two other overlapping planned radio interferometers, i.e., FASR (Frequency-Agile Solar Radiotelescope) and LOFAR (Low-Frequency Array) the entire plasma frequency range from 30 GHz all the way down to the plasma frequency cutoff of 30 kHz at 1 AU will be covered. These instruments will track the magnetic trajectory of high energy particles, beam-driven radio emission, and localize the acceleration sites in the corona or interplanetary shocks. We simulate some CME and type III events, as they will be mapped with these instruments, using realistic scattering functions of radio waves on coronal and heliospheric density inhomogeneities.
