Passive microwave complex of remote sensing for the detection of objects in the soil

The paper deals with some grounding in theory of a passive radiometric complex designed to detect from a helicopter metal and non-metal objects in the soil at a depth of several metres. Experimental results obtained during tests of a complex prototype are presented as well. The complex can be applie...

Description
Summary:The paper deals with some grounding in theory of a passive radiometric complex designed to detect from a helicopter metal and non-metal objects in the soil at a depth of several metres. Experimental results obtained during tests of a complex prototype are presented as well. The complex can be applied in construction and repair works to detect underground utility systems. The complex is of particular interest for the detection of land mines which armed conflicts leave after their completion.
