            Abstract : 
Bistatic and multistatic radar plays an important role in modern warfare. A simple multistatic radar is proposed based on Alamouti space-time code. The structure of the multistatic radar and signal model is studied. The detection performance of the multistatic radar is also analyzed. Taking advantage of spatial diversity gain, the radar performance is dramatically improved compared to the current multistatic radar
