A method for processing data from a bistatic radar was improved in order to obtain information on the surface of individual regions on Venus with a resolution substantially better than in the Pioneer-Venus experiment. The improved method made it possible to achieve a surface resolution of 5 to 20 km. In the bistatic radar observations made from Venera-10 the planetary surface was irradiated by monochromatic radio waves with a wavelength 32 cm. The transmitter was aboard the vehicle and registry of the direct signal and the signal reflected from the surface was performed at a ground station. Movement of the mirror reflection point on the Venusian surface caused by satellite motion relative to the planet made it possible to study regions adjacent to the trajectories of motion of a mirror reflection point. Five regions were explored. The first four were in the Southern Hemisphere and the fifth was in the Northern Hemisphere.
