Ground wave of an idealized lightning return stroke.

Ground wave of an idealized lightning return stroke.

We model a lightning return stroke by a vertical traveling wave of current with a complex propagation constant. The Sommerfeld-integral analysis is similar to that of a vertical electric dipole over a lossy earth except that the source is distributed in height. When the integration over the source c...
