闪电甚高频辐射源定位技术为闪电放电特征及其物理机制的研究提供了重要手段. 基于空间谱估计理论, 可将正交传播算子方法应用于闪电放电通道时空演变过程的成像. 该方法将阵列数据协方差矩阵进行线性分解形成正交传播算子, 然后以子空间的正交性构造空间谱, 通过空间谱搜索实现辐射源定位. 针对闪电宽带甚高频信号, 采用非相干子空间处理方法将带宽内的有效频点进行平均, 减小噪声干扰. 利用数值仿真分析了该方法的定位性能, 验证该方法定位弱辐射源的有效性, 并与时间反转技术进行了对比. 针对人工触发闪电过程的定位结果表明该方法可以较高的时空分辨率清晰地描绘出闪电通道的基本结构及放电通道的发展过程, 并且其对双源同窗事件的定位能力优于时间反转方法. 该方法对提高宽带甚高频阵列在闪电弱辐射源定位、闪电起始机制的研究中的应用价值具有重要意义.Broadband very-high frequency (VHF) localization of lightning radiation sources provides an important means for understanding lightning discharge characteristics and the corresponding physical mechanisms. In order to improve the ability to locate weak radiation sources, the orthogonal propagator method (OPM) is proposed to map the space-time evolution process of lightning discharge channels based on the theory of spatial spectrum estimation. In the method, the linear decomposition of the covariance matrix is used to form the orthogonal propagator, and the spatial spectrum is constructed according to orthogonality of subspaces. Then, the location of lightning radiation sources is determined by searching for the maximum of the spatial spectrum. For broadband VHF signals, the non-coherent subspace method is used to average the effective frequency points in bandwidth to reduce noise interference. Based on a multiple-antenna radiation continuous observation system (MARCOS), locating performance of the method is analyzed by numerical simulation. The method is verified by parameters such as locating error, half-peak width of the spatial spectrum, and angular resolution. Compared with the results from the time reversal technique(FDTR), the location error and recognition probability under a low signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the proposed OPM algorithm are similar to those of FDTR algorithm, but the angular resolution for two radiation sources of OPM algorithm is better than that of FDTR algorithm. Finally, the proposed method is used to map the spatial and temporal development of a classical triggered lightning discharge channels in the summer of 2017. The results show that the proposed method can clearly depict the basic structure of lightning discharge channels with high spatial and temporal resolution. For the upward positive leader of the triggered lightning, the OPM algorithm can locate more radiation sources with a better structure than the FDTR algorithm. It implies that the proposed OPM algorithm is better for locating weak radiation sources than the FDTR algorithm. Meanwhile, the OPM algorithm has better performance for resolving two radiation sources in the same window than the FDTR algorithm. As a result, the proposed OPM method is of great significance for improving the application value of broadband VHF arrays in the study of locating weak radiation sources and lightning initiation mechanisms.
