Abstract

An alternative method for solving the problem of navigation of unmanned aerial vehicle has been developed; this unmanned aerial vehicle is equipped with airborne direction finder using a radio beacon with known spatial position under conditions of the absence of data having adequate precision and obtained from satellite navigation systems.
