The characteristics of lightning monitoring and positioning system in Inner Mongolia were introduced and studied in the lightning accident analysis based on the lightning monitoring and positioning data of the lightning stroke accidents. The positioning error of lightning monitoring and positioning system was analyzed. The results showed that lightning current intensity and the position precision were very important data in the lightning disaster investigation. Finally, a variety of meteorological data should be applied in the lightning disaster investigation and identification.展开更多

Howerer, this signal mode also brings about ranging indistinctness resulting in a shorter positioning distance much less than that limited by the period of the synchro signal. This paper presents a hardware distance-gate data acquiring scheme. It puts the original data sent to the computer in order of ' direct first pulse- depth information pulse (or first pulse reflected by water surface )…' to guarantee the effective positioning distance of the system. It has the advantage of reducing the processing time of the computer thus ensuring the realtime functioning of the system. A figure of the orbit of an underwater moving target measured in practice is attached to the end of the paper.展开更多

A variant of the so-called ’two-step’ method for gravity field modelling is adopted for this purpose, where the GRACE(Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment)orbits are derived from the GPS(Global Positioning System) data in a first step followed by a simultaneous determination of dynamic orbit and gravity filed from the GPS-derived orbits and K-band rangerate measurements in a second step. In this way, the monthly gravity field solutions complete to degree and order 96 are produced for the period Jan. 2005 to Dec. 2010. Their performance is assessed by comparing them with the official solutions, i.e., CSR RL05, GFZ RL05 a and JPL RL05. A comparison in the spectral domain in terms of geoid heights reveals that the obtained solutions present the smallest degree amplitudes at degree 30-75. A further analysis of mass changes in the spatial domain demonstrates that the main signals observed from the obtained solutions are in great agreement with those from the official solutions. Remarkably, the correlation coefficients of mass changes in large river basins from the official solutions with respect to those from the obtained solutions are all above 0.97. These results demonstrate that the obtained solutions are comparable to the official solutions.展开更多
