A simple 'knee-like' approximation of the Lateral Distribution Function (LDF)of Cherenkov light emitted by EAS (extensive air showers) in the atmosphere isproposed for solving various tasks of data analysis in HiSCORE and other wideangle ground-based experiments designed to detect gamma rays and cosmic rayswith the energy above tens of TeV. Simulation-based parametric analysis ofindividual LDF curves revealed that on the radial distance 20-500 m the5-parameter 'knee-like' approximation fits individual LDFs as well as the meanLDF with a very good accuracy. In this paper we demonstrate the efficiency andflexibility of the 'knee-like' LDF approximation for various primary particlesand shower parameters and the advantages of its application to suppressingproton background and selecting primary gamma rays.
