The Consert instrument (Bistatic radio Sounder) is flying onboard the ESA-Rosetta mission to wards Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. This paper described the generation of simulated signals as resulting from the interaction of the electromagnetic waves transmetted from Consert, travelling through a modeled comet nucleus, and reaching the Consert Receiver.
