Abstract We investigate a method of getting radio images of asteroids by single-position radar with narrowband sounding signal. A model is presented for calculation of power spectra of echo signals of a rotating rough ellipsoid. This model is a useful tool for analyzing the results of radio-location experiments. The accuracy of determination of the shape of an asteroid and its roughness is estimated based on the analysis of two-dimensional radio images.
