Inductive Sensor for Lightning Current Measurement, Fitted in Aircraft Windows—Part II: Measurements on an A320 Aircraft

A novel sensor for the detection of the lightning current through the fuselage of an aircraft has been tested on an A320 aircraft. An accurate method-of-moment model of the window edge provided reliable calibration of the sensor for external fields. The data have been analyzed and the good performance of the sensor in sensitivity and bandwidth is demonstrated.
