Abstract
The PAMELA detector will fly at the beginning of 2004 on board the Russian satellite Resurs–DK for a 3-year mission designed to study mainly antiparticles in cosmic rays. The core of the apparatus is a magnetic spectrometer in which silicon microstrip detectors are employed. A dedicated simulation study, tuned on beam test data, is presented: it allows to determine the best position finding algorithm for different incidence angles.
