On Solution of Equation of Optical Radiation Transfer in Dispersive Media along Location Traces

A problem is considered of the optical radiation propagation in the earth atmosphere along the location trace. Using the mutuality theorem allows reducing the location problem to finding the properties of the radiation field, created by the real and "fictitious" (with parameters of a receiver) sources along direct traces. The mutuality theorem application is shown to give the opportunity of the essential simplification of performing the power calculations while solving the location problem even for irregular surfaces having elaborate dispersion indicatrices for local sites.
