Scientific paper
The use of bistatic radar for planetary studies is discussed with the objective of presenting important, new capabilities for spaceborne systems. The success of bistatic radar, as a probe of the solar system's planets and moons, is reviewed. The relevance of new micropower and signal processing technologies is assessed, and the scientific opportunities for extending the study of planetary surfaces, atmospheres, and rings are presented. Ground based and spaceborne systems are discussed. The study of planetary surfaces, atmospheres, and rings is reviewed. The opportunities presented by the Next Generation Explorer (NGE) equipped with these new technologies are summarized.
