Abstract: Optical detection is the most common way to observe astronomical objects, while radar detection can directly obtain distance and velocity information of the objects as beneficial supplement to optical detection. Especially, with the development of radar technology, the detection sensitivity is becoming higher and higher, thus make it possible to actively detect astronomical objects with radar within the solar system. By analyzing the electromagnetic characteristics and motion attitude modulation laws of the astronomical objects within the detection spectrum of radar, this article describes the information features that can be obtained in astronomical object detection activities with radar, as well as some difficulties in such detection, and provides some possible development ideas.
