Abstract:A concept of a bi-static geosynchronous synthetic aperture system, which is formed by reusing backscattered signals of Compass Navigation Satellite System (CNSS), is proposed. The geometric relations of a geostationary satellite of CNSS, located on a geosynchronous satellite receiver, which is illuminated by the backscattered energy of a satellite of CNSS, and a ground station is built up, and following the relations as well as principle of synthetic aperture radar, we expatiate the feasibility of the system by considering parameters such as imaging resolution, ratio of signal to noise and link budget, etc.. Besides, the potential remote sensing applications for measurement of terrain humidity, characteristics of space-time dynamics of changing of terrain surface and atmospheric characteristic, etc..
