A Current Propagation Type Return Stroke Model Consistent with the Leader Charge Distribution

We describe a current propagation type return stroke model which is consistent with the estimated distribution of the charge on the leader channel. The model takes into account the dispersion of the return stroke current along the return stroke channel. Th ...

On the Complete Radiation Pattern of a Vertical Hertzian Dipole Above a Low-Loss Ground

Krzysztof Michalski, Juan Ramon Mosig

The complete radiation field pattern of a vertical Hertzian dipole antenna on or above a lossless or low-loss dielectric half-space is studied using a rigorous Sommerfeld formalism. The reflected fields in the air above the interface and the subsurface fie ...

Lightning-Induced Voltages on Overhead Distribution Lines Computed through Analytical Expressions for the Electromagnetic Fields

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

The evaluation of lightning ElectroMagnetic (EM) fields represents the most cumbersome part of the lightning-induced voltages computation process. Their evaluation is usually performed through a numerical routine or with simplified analytical expressions, ...

The Polarity Reversal of Lightning‐Generated Sky Wave

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Wenhao Hou

The polarity reversal of the lightning‐generated first sky wave as a function of the observation distance is studied using a novel approach combining the finite‐difference time domain (FDTD) method and the superposition principle of electromagnetic waves. ...

Pulses in Upward Negative Lightning at the Säntis Tower in Northeastern Switzerland

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Davide Pavanello, Lixia He

Upward lightning happens predominantly from tall objects. The channel-base currents associated with upward negative lightning initiated from towers exhibit pulses that can be classified, based on their waveform features and on the concurrence with other pr ...
