Lunar Trailblazer Spacecraft Tracking and Mission Recovery Attempt: Characterization of Status and Behavior of a Non‐Cooperative Object in Cis‐Lunar Space

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Unexpectedly following launch, the Lunar Trailblazer mission experienced software anomalies that led it to orient solar panels away from the sun and lose communication with Earth. This paper describes efforts to determine the spacecraft state and attempt recovery of the mission's science at the Moon.

Extending Loffeld's bistatic formula for the general bistatic SAR configuration

IET Radar, Sonar & Navigation, 2010
This study derives an accurate bistatic point target reference spectrum based on a zeroth-order polynomial model. The spectrum contains only two hyperbolic square root terms that are very analogous in form to the analytical monostatic spectrum. The new formulation can be considered as an improvement of the Loffeld's bistatic formula (LBF) and allows it

Bistatic-Like Differential SAR Tomography [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2019
Motivated by prospective synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite missions, this paper addresses the problem of differential SAR tomography (D-TomoSAR) in urban areas using spaceborne bistatic or pursuit monostatic acquisitions. A bistatic or pursuit monostatic interferogram is not subject to significant temporal decorrelation or atmospheric phase ...

Assessing GNSS Reflectometry for High‐Latitude 3D Ionospheric Imaging

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study investigates whether Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS‐R) measurements from low‐Earth‐orbit (LEO) satellites can improve three‐dimensional (3D) ionospheric electron density imaging, with a focus on high‐latitude regions. Conventional ionospheric tomography is limited by sparse ground‐based receiver coverage over

Optical Phased Arrays on Photonic Integrated Circuit Platforms: Challenges, Opportunities, and Future Applications

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 14, 27 July 2026.
Integrated optical phased arrays are emerging as scalable engines for solid‐state beam steering and programmable wavefront control. This Review maps the field from beam‐steering principles and core building blocks to material platforms, system‐level bottlenecks, and application frontiers, highlighting how heterogeneous integration, aperiodic ...

New processing approach and results for bistatic TerraSAR-X/F-SAR spaceborne-airborne experiments [PDF]

, 2009
Following the success of the first bistatic spaceborne-airborne experiment between TerraSAR-X and FSAR carried out in November 2007, DLR has performed a second bistatic experiment in July 2008 with new challenging acquisitions.

Space‐Time‐Coding Metasurfaces Enabling Programmable Range‐Angle‐Dependent Energy Auto‐Scanning

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 14, 27 July 2026.
This paper presents a novel energy auto‐scanning system based on a space‐time‐coding metasurface. By applying progressive time‐delayed, time‐varying phase modulation, the system generates non‐uniform, temporally evolving electromagnetic field distributions across both angle and range.

Bistatic Experiment Using TerraSAR-X and DLR’s new F-SAR System [PDF]

, 2008
A bistatic X-band experiment was successfully performed early November 2007. TerraSAR-X was used as transmitter and DLR’s new airborne radar system F-SAR, which was programmed to acquire data in a quasi-continuous mode to avoid echo window ...

Observations and Analysis of a Tornadic Quasi‐Linear Convective System (QLCS) With Bistatic Weather Radar

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract The deployment of a multistatic radar network in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area in Spring 2024 has allowed for unique observations of several severe weather events. This passive multistatic network operates in conjunction with the operational KTLX WSR‐88D, allowing for synchronous multi‐Doppler analyses. This work presents a case study of

Relativistic Effects in Bistatic SAR Processing and System Synchronization [PDF]

, 2012
This paper addresses relativistic effects in bistatic and multistatic SAR systems and missions. It is shown that the use of different reference frames for bistatic SAR processing and bistatic radar synchronization is prone to nota-ble phase and time ...
