Research abstract
This effort will develop an innovative, space based platform for calibration of ground-based radar systems. Low cost, microsatellite technologies, developed under previous programs, will enable a low cost, rapidly deployed calibration target system consisting of conical and spherical shaped bodies capable of formation flying, shape manipulation, and up and downlinking data to and from the ground.
