| Research Abstract |
An algorithm for measurement of wave direction, period, wave height and phase for each component of the sea surface waves by using a microwave pulse Doppler radar has established. A sea surface wave measurement system with two fixed antennas was developed and the performance of the system was confirmed by field experiment. The system measured the spatiotemporal changing of sea surface profiles successfully. This system contributes to improve the performance of ships and offshore structures in waves and to prevent coastal disaster by waves.
