| Summary: | Coherent S-band radar is a remote sensing observation device with high spatial-temporal resolution and can be used to achieve deterministic sea wave reconstruction and prediction (DSWRP) technology. However, coherent S-band radar can observe nonlinear details of the sea surface due to its high resolution, which makes the propagation operator matrix an ill-conditioned overdetermined matrix. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a DSWRP scheme using condition number regularized least squares (CN-RLS) for coherent S-band radar. First, the space-time velocity information was obtained from the radar echo. Second, the CN-RLS method solved the phase-resolved model coefficients. Finally, the deterministic wave field was predicted according to the solved model coefficients. The proposed scheme was verified by simulation data and the real radar dataset observed by the coherent S-band wave-measuring radar onboard the ship XIANGYANGHONG-18 in the East China Sea in April 2024. The predicted wave elevation of the proposed method was compared with the wave elevation observed based on the X-band wave-measuring radar, and the root mean square error (RMSE) and correlation coefficient (CC) were 0.22 m and 0.76, respectively, which show that the proposed method could effectively implement the DSWRP technology. |
