Abstract 

The theoretical justification and technology of using the method for determining the location of a radiation source are presented.  The method is based on fixing the maximum radiation power measured on adjacent UAV trajectories and calculating the location of the radiation source at the ground control station based on the coordinates of these maximums. Implementation of the method requires simple hardware and software compared to analogues.
