| Description | Experiments performed at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida during TRIP-78 identified sources of the strongest RF radiation from lightning in the HF-VHF frequency range. Measurements were made of electric field changes associated with RF radiation using a field change system triggered on the output of an RF detector. The field changes associated with the strongest RF radiation are very fast (10 - 20 microseconds), bipolar pulses having an initial negative going half-cycle followed by a positive overshoot. These fast pulses consistently produced more RF radiation than was associated with return strokes, and their shape was remarkably consistent, independent of frequency. |
