Abstract

The invention relates to a mobile radio-frequency enabled device. In order to enable a lightning detection by means of such a device, it comprises an electromagnetic interferences detection component detecting electromagnetic interferences in at least one radio-frequency channel, which at least one radio-frequency channel is usable by the mobile radio-frequency enabled device for a communication link. The device further comprises a processing component adapted to determine whether a lightning stroke can be assumed to have occurred in the vicinity of the mobile radio-frequency enabled device due to an electromagnetic interference detected by said electromagnetic interferences detection component. The invention relates equally to a corresponding system, to a corresponding method and to a corresponding software program product.
