A review of the modeling approaches of the lightning M-component with special attention to their current and electric field characteristics

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Carlo Alberto Nucci, Qi Li

In this paper, we present the characteristics of current, electric fields and modeling approaches of lightning M-component mode of charge transfer. We consider both the classical M-components (occurring after return strokes) and M-component-type ICC (Initi ...

A Correlation-Based Electromagnetic Time Reversal Technique to Locate Indoor Transient Radiation Sources

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Zhaoyang Wang, Qi Li

To overcome the multipath interference in locating transient electromagnetic (EM) radiation sources in an indoor environment, we propose a criterion that calculates the correlation between back-propagated signals from observation points, to be used in EM t ...

An Extension of the Guided Wave M‐Component Model Taking Into Account the Presence of a Tall Strike Object

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Qi Li, Mi Zhou

We present in this paper an extension of the guided-wave M-component model of Rakov et al. considering the presence of a vertically elevated strike object. The tall object is represented as a lossless, uniform transmission line. Expressions for the current ...

A Review of the Modeling Approaches for the Lightning M-Component Mode of Charge Transfer

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Qi Li, Mi Zhou

This paper presents a review of lightning M-component models. M-component models are classified into two main categories: (i) the guided-wave M-component model and its extensions and (ii) nonlinear M-component models. Other models and assumptions, in which ...

Locating Transient Directional Sources in Free Space Based on the Electromagnetic Time Reversal Technique

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Qi Li

Traditional location methods such as time of arrival and direction of arrival have been widely used to locate transient radiation sources. However, these approaches neglect the directional radiation pattern of the sources. Locating directional sources is a ...

Measurement and Modeling of Both Distant and Close Electric Fields of an M‐Component in Rocket‐Triggered Lightning

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Qi Li, Mi Zhou

Simultaneous measurements of current and multiple‐station electric fields associated with a 5.4‐kA‐peak M‐component in rocket‐triggered lightning are presented in this study. A close‐range electric field measurement site was located northeast of the trigge ...
