Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/9241This work proposes the design of a prototype for detect lightning, which will, count the number of lightning detected, calculate the density of lightning to the area of operation of the sensor and to estimate the peak of the variation of the electric field for the instant occurrence of discharge. A study of atmospheric electricity, types of lightning, emission of electromagnetic waves during the occurrence of the lightning , types of electromagnetic sensors and lightning detection networks gave subsidy to the design of the prototype . The prototype consists of two antennas, one loop antenna and a flat plate antenna , and electronic circuits , these electronic circuits are implemented mostly in PSoC device ( Programmable System -on - Chip ) , which is a relatively new technology that works with analog and digital signals and also has a CPU to perform the processing of these signals . The validation of the data obtained and estimated coverage area of the sensor, were based on data from STARNET network (sferics Timing And Ranging NETwork). The prototype was designed to be low cost, have a simple and straightforward interface and can be installed in the Amazon region.Acesso AbertoEletricidade atmosféricaDescargas elétricasDetectoresMétodos de simulaçãoDescargas atmosféricasContador de descargas atmosféricasProtótipoDensidade de raiosLightningCounter lightningPrototypeLightning densityPSoC ( Programmable system on chip)Starnet (Sferics timing and ranging network)DissertaçãoCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA ELETRICA::MEDIDAS ELETRICAS, MAGNETICAS E ELETRONICAS INSTRUMENTACAO::INSTRUMENTACAO ELETRONICACNPQ::CIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::FISICA::FISICA DOS FLUIDOS, FISICA DE PLASMAS E DESCARGAS ELETRICAS::FISICA DE PLASMAS E DESCARGAS ELETRICAS
