Abstract
To date, within the framework of existing ground-based radio monitoring facilities, it is impossible to qualitatively perform the functions and tasks of radio monitoring. For countries with a large territory, such as the Republic of Kazakhstan, it is advisable to use low-orbit small spacecraft as radio monitoring stations to increase the efficiency of the radio monitoring system for the use of the radio frequency spectrum. The paper considers the developed method for determining the coordinates of a radio emission source based on the angle-measuring method. Algorithms are proposed and a computer program is compiled to determine the location of the radio source. The developed method can be used at the initial stages of the development of a radio monitoring system based on a single small spacecraft.
