Abstract: A model has been generated to calculate the interstellar radiation field (ISRF) in the interstellar medium (ISM) in UV (912 \AA - 3000 \AA) within few parsecs of the Sun, using stellar catalog from Hipparcos mission. Comparison of model with previous models and observation from TD-1 satellite shows a good agreement. We found that B type stars contribute mostly to the total ISRF and constitute $\sim$7\% of the total number of stars in our model at distances between 0 pc and 500 pc. Stars farther away than 500 pc from the Sun contribute very less to the total ISRF as a result of attenuation by dust.
