Bistatic Radar systems are largely used in detection of targets. In this paper, the GPS (Global Positionning System) satellites constellation is chosen as emitters. The feasibility of such a system is studied and different scenarios are compared in a context of sea surface target detection. For that, resolution parameters are estimated using Point Spread Function (PSF) coming from the filling up of the frequency plan.
