The performance of a double sided silicon strip detector (DSSSD), used for position and energy detection of heavy ions, is reported. The analysis shows that the incomplete charge collection (ICC) and charge sharing (CS) effects of the DSSSD give rise to a loss of energy resolution, however the position information is recorded without ambiguity. Representations of ICC/CS events in the energy spectra are shown and their origins are confirmed by correlation analysis of the spectra from both junction side and ohmic side of the DSSSD.
