Estimation of sample size influence to lengthened objects detection algorithm

This paper is devoted to the important topic of choosing the sample size for the designed algorithm, which allows us to detect lengthened objects of the underlying terrain by the signal of the pulse radar altimeter. At first, here is given the short description of the algorithm and its distinctions form other existing algorithms. Then the abilities of the given algorithm are discussed. After all, the principle of choosing the number of samples in the train is performed. At last, the recommendations about choosing the lengthened objects, which could be detected, are presented.
