Due to the enhanced coverage area and better detection performance multistatic radar systems attracted a substantial attention in recent years. Bistatic radar operates with dedicated transmitter or with transmitters of opportunity. But multistatic radar system uses multiple active transmitters at different locations to increase the detection area for target localization. In this paper the optimal geometry of a multistatic radar is analyzed based on the signal to noise ratio and transmitter to target to receiver distance. The detection coverage of monostatic, bistatic and multistatic radar with different antenna placement has been carried out with the Oval of Cassini and its parameters. The performance of coverage area for various are compared for different signal to noise ratio and number of active transceivers has been analyzed.
