The electro-production cross sections of ed --> ed* have been calculated ba
sed on the meson exchange current model. The cross section around 30 degree
s of 1 GeV electron in the laboratory frame is about 10 nb, which is about
two orders smaller than that of the quasi-elastic and a resonance productio
n. A special kinematics and detector system must be studied to precisely de
fine the weak signal of d* resonance from the strong background.
