In work the electrodynamics model of the reflection coefficient of soil and forest cover is constructed. Which consist of a three-layer structure: the atmosphere-forest-soil. Forest modeled layer consisting of randomly arranged composite cylindrical elements with anisotropic dielectric permittivity. The frequency and angular dependence of the reflectance were estimated. A comparison with experimental data are carried out.
Keywords: коэффициент отражения, анизотропный почвенно-лесной слой, случайная дискретная среда, coefficients of reflection, anisotropic layer of soil and forest, random discrete medium
