| Abstract | The CN tower has been a source of lightning current data for the past 15 years. Since the CN tower is a transmission tower and it is not unexpected that the recorded lightning current signals be corrupted with different kinds of noise. The existence of noise makes it difficult to extract the return-stroke current waveform parameters from the measured waveforms, which are important for developing lightning protection systems. In this paper, a modified power spectral subtraction (MSS) method has been developed in order to de-noise the lighting return-stroke current derivative signals measured at the tower. In order to evaluate the proposed de-noising technique, the derivative of Heidler function is used to model the measured return-stroke current derivative signal. The measured current derivative signal is simulated using the Heidler derivative model and by artificially corrupting it with noise signals measured at the tower in the absence of lightning. The proposed MSS method is applied to denoise the simulated current derivative signal and the resultant waveform is compared with the Heidler derivative model, thus enabling the accurate evaluation of the proposed method. The results of the evaluation show a substantial improvement in the signal peak-to-noise peak ratio (SPNPR) of up to 32 dB depending on the level of the noise signal added to the Heidler derivative function. Furthermore, 95.7%-98.5% recovery of the peak of the original Heidler derivative function was obtained. For further evaluation of the proposed MSS method, the conventional spectral subtraction (SS) method is applied for de-noising the same simulated current derivative signals, which produced a substantially lower SPNPR of up to 16 dB with a peak recovery of 93.3%-97.5% of the original Heidler derivative model. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
