Use ground-based radar distance detection to solve problem of monitoring space objects does not depend on weather conditions and time of day. Their potential capabilities, territorial location and presence of intersecting viewing zones create basis for expanding functionality and control of space objects up to geostationary orbit. Analyze possibility of detecting space objects with joint use of two geographically separated long-range radar stations in comparison with use of only one station. Principle of using several geographically separated radar distance detection in interests solving problems of monitoring outer space is considered. Dependence of change in probability detecting a space object is established when number of coherently accumulated pulses varies under conditions of required probabilities correct detection and false alarm. Possibilities of detecting space objects in geostationary orbits with regular operation radar distance detection and with implementation of algorithms for complex processing radar information with joint use of several geographically separated stations are analyzed. Results can be used to evaluate effectiveness of use several radar distance detection as part of multi-position radar complexes with intersecting viewing zones for detecting space objects in geostationary orbit.
