Localization of Narrow Bipolar Events over Sumatra Island Based on VHF Interferometer and Magnetic Direction Finder Systems

Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) generate strong radio emissions. In this paper, spatio-temporal analysis of 15 NBEs recorded from a tropical storm over Sumatra Island is presented. Two localization systems, namely the magnetic direction finder (MDF) and interferometer (ITF), were employed and utilized...
