  • Abstract
    In order to protect electronic devices against the effects of lightning strikes to tall structures, detailed information about the lightning currents are necessary. For this purpose, a full-waveform measuring system was set up on the north towers of Jiangyin Highway Bridge. In this paper, the calibration to this system is introduced and the results of simulating lightning currents are given
