The unusual lightning events are characterized by a pronounced opposite-polarity pulse prior to the main electric field waveform. These electric fields are pertinent to the unusual lightning events recorded in the Himalayan region, at the height of about 1300 m above the sea level, during the premonsoon period of 2015. For the case of unusual events, a downward positive leader approaches the ground, and there is an increase in the downward-directed electric field due to which negative leaders move upwards and will try to intercept. Continuous wavelet transform has been used to understand the features of different events of lightning frequency. The wavelet transform of different events of unusual signals in the present study reveals that the unusual flashes radiate in the spectral range of 1-412.5 kHz in the initial stage and 0.9375-337.5 kHz in the overshoot which conclude that they radiate in very low frequency to very high frequency indicating that they are composed of many microdischarges and low frequencies indicating that they are composed of very long discharges. It is believed that this research work will be useful to design engineers for installing appropriate protective measures on the appliances in the Himalayan regions.
