Based on single-station observations, this study develops a directionfinding method to extract Russian Alpha transmitter signals. First, the amplitudes of Alpha signals received in Suizhou City,Hubei Province(31.57°N, 113.32°E) in the east-west(EW) and north-south(NS) directions are obtained by the power spectrum method. The amplitude ratios of signals in the two directions are subsequently adopted to estimate the propagation angles of the signals with respect to the NS direction of the VLF receiver station. Phase ambiguity in our system is eliminated by comparing Alpha signal waveform with that from the VTX transmitter in India(8.39°N, 77.75°E) as a reference station. Finally, we can determine the quadrant where the incoming wave signals are located relative to the receiver and eventually distinguish the exact Alpha transmitters. Based on the direction-finding results, the amplitudes of each Alpha signal are extracted, and their diurnal variation features are analyzed to verify the performance of our method. These results are of great significance for the further study of Alpha signals and VLF long-distance communication.展开更多
