Abstract

Wave glider is a new class of ocean mobile observation vehicle. It is a new applied research direction that using wave glider for wave observation. Currently, wave observation is usually performed at fixed points by using wave buoys, the research on using wave glider for navigational observations is still rare, and the characteristics of wave observation using wave glider is not yet mastered. The article Research on the characteristics of wave observation of wave glider, Based on the experimental results, analyze the differences and the correlations between wave glider and wave buoy in wave height, wave period, wave number and wave direction. Analyze the existence mechanism of the difference and propose the theoretical basis for eliminating the difference or correcting the observation data of wave glider. Based on experimental data and theoretical analysis, it is proved that the wave glider is feasible to observe wave. The average correlation coefficient between the observation data of wave glider and the observation data of wave buoy is above 0.9, the results prove that there is a strong correlation between wave glider and wave buoy.
