Evaluation of Site Errors in LLS Magnetic Direction Finding Caused by Large Hills Using the 3D‐FDTD Technique

Wolfgang Schulz, Hannes Kohlmann

Angle and amplitude estimation errors in magnetic direction finding, called site errors, are important sensor-specific errors in lightning location systems (LLS). They are known to be caused by nearby cables and overhead lines due to induced currents. Due ...

Field-to-Transmission Line Coupling Models With Special Attention to the Cooray–Rubinstein Approximation

Marcos Rubinstein

There are three equivalent procedures to evaluate the voltages induced by lightning on power lines, namely, the Agrawal–Price–Gurbaxani model, the Taylor–Satterwhite–Harrison model, and the Rachidi model. The Cooray–Rubinstein approximation is a procedure ...

Calculation of High-Frequency Electromagnetic Field Coupling to Overhead Transmission Line Above a Lossy Ground and Terminated With a Nonlinear Load

Jun Guo

High-frequency electromagnetic fields such as those associated with electromagnetic pulse (EMP) and intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI) can couple to overhead power lines. Since the height of the overhead power lines can be comparable or even l ...
