On the deduction of Lorentz transformation laws without the postulate on the constancy of light velocity

The new system of postulates, which makes it possible to derive the relativistic transformation of co-ordinates and time has been considered in the paper. The postulate on the group nature of the required conversion has been proposed instead of the light velocity constancy postulate. This is sufficient for obtaining the required conversion, which contains one free parameter. The values of the parameter can be found either from the additional experiments or from the additional physical assumptions.
