The feasibility of asteroid detection using the Forward Scatter Radar Network that exploits three pulsars as transmitters is examined. We provide a power budget estimate for asteroid detection using such a FSR-network with the radio telescope used as a receiver. The numerical results are obtained for two known radio telescopes in the Netherland and three known pulsars.
