The measurement and analysis of the electric field waveforms produced by lightning discharges

This paper deals with semisphere-type sensor fo measuring the electric field waveforms by lightning discharges. The theoretical principle and design rule of the device are introduced, and also the calibration and application investigations are carried out. From the calibration experiments, the frequency bandwidth of the semisphere-type electric field measuring device ranges from 200 [Hz] to 1.56 [MHz], and the sensitivity of sensor is 0.96 [mV/V/m]. The electric field waveforms produced by lightning discharges were observed for June and August 1995. It is shown that the electric field waveforms produced at the distance of more than 50 [km] include only radiation component.
