Abstract :
This paper considers a new method of minefield reconnaissance with use of the broad size detector. The method allows capture of the terrain´s radio images in the band of the mine detector sensors. The experimental installation was created with a set of radio ground probing sensors. To treat the radio images and to reduce the number of false alarms the spatial algorithm was proposed. A mine detector of this kind can be used in peacekeeping and humanitarian operations
