Abstract: A new iterative method for solving the Boltzmann transport equation in the space-uniform case is introduced. The method is based on the use of a mesh in the momentum space to represent the distribution function. In intermediate points the function is found with the help of interpolation. The method is used to study the hot-electron transport in bulk $n$-In N, which is a promising material for optoelectronic applications.
