Abstract :
Materials about possibilities of object detection, correlated with its radiobrightness contrast to surroundings, are presented. The results of investigation of possibilities of biological object detection for objects, shaded by vegetation, are presented. The conclusion was made, that biological object (a man), shaded by vegetation, can be detected from a distance up to 1.5 km, if attenuation of electromagnetic waves, correlated with vegetation, is not more -25 dB. The experimental results of object detection are presented.
