Abstract
Radio frequency observations of cloud-to-ground lightning (CG) were made the broadband lightning interferometer. Radiation source locations and electric field waveforms have been analyzed for different types of breakdown events, including the preliminary breakdown of in-cloud activities, the stepped leaders of initial strokes to ground and activities during and following return strokes.
