Abstract :
A European consortium lead by ONERA has been constituted with industrial companies from France, Spain and Switzerland to answer to ESA tender to realize a radar demonstrator in order to validate the expected performances of a future ground based radar system in a realistic operational environment. ONERA choose to design, to develop, to realize and to validate one bistatic breadboard system to build a demonstrator for real radar capacities for space objects detection and tracking.
