  • Abstract
    The paper deals with some grounding in theory of a passive radiometric complex of microwave and IR ranges 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. 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 were left after the completion of armed conflicts
