Several problems arise in design of multistatic terrestrial radar installations performing surveillance tasks with respect to orbiting or ballistic objects; given transmitter-receiver configuration can be "graded" in terms of physical dimensions, or volume, of "down-range" region of space wherein orbiting or ballistic re-entry vehicle, "acquired" by subject configuration, will subsequently be found with high probability; approach appears not to be limited to exact situation which motivated application; it could be applied to nondrag-free trajectories, and to deep space applications wherein receiving stations are not terrestrially located.
