The Spectral Statistical Method for Determining the Location Parameters of a Dipole Source of Electromagnetic Radiation

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Using the measured horizontal and vertical components of the magnetic and electric fields, respectively, we solve the problem of determining the location of a dipole source of electromagnetic radiation, which is equivalent to the lightning discharge, at the specified point of an infinitely conducting plane. The proposed method, which is based on the analysis of the measured-signal spectra, allows one to develop many estimates of the source location, choose the final estimate on the basis of the results of analysis of the entire totality of these estimates, and, therefore, reach stability in determining the source location. The spectral method makes it possible to obtain more stable solutions at a lower computation cost compared with the previously developed parametric extremum method. The spectral-method algorithm can be naturally parallelized. The results of the analytical and numerical studies of the accuracy and stability of the proposed method are presented.
