Abstract

Most of the meteor radioastronomical radars are backscatter radars which cover only a small area of the atmosphere. Therefore a daytime meteor flux models are based on sparse data collected by only a few radar systems. To solve this issue, a radar system with a wide coverage is required. We present a new approach of open-source multi-static radio meteor detection system which could be distributed over a large area. This feature allows us to detect meteor events taking place over a larger area as well and gather more uniform data about meteor flux and possibly about meteor trajectories.
