  • Abstract
    A new short-baseline TDOA VHF lightning location system is developed. The results indicate that the location system could effectively map the lightning radiation sources, and visually reproduced the development of lightning occurring inside the cloud. The technique provides an effective approach to describe the temporal and spatial development of lightning discharge in two dimensions with high temporal and spatial resolution.
