Advances in the area of active controls for wave energy converter (WEC) devices have uncovered a need for accurate estimates of the actual waves that will arrive at the WEC devices in the near future, typically several seconds ahead. This paper considers the parametric estimation of these impending waves by employing a network of spatially distributed ocean sensors, possibly of different types, whose...
Ocean wave energy farms are composed of several wave energy converter devices. The objective of each converter is to capture the potential and kinetic energy in rolling ocean waves and convert them into electricity. An important task in optimizing power delivery from ocean wave energy farms is short term prediction of incoming ocean waves. Accurate predictions enable predictive wave energy converter...
Advanced control systems for Wave Energy Converter (WEC) devices require the prediction of the exact time waveforms of ocean waves. In this paper, ocean waves are described as a sum of several plane waves of different frequencies and directions of travel while sensor measurements are assumed to be observed under Gaussian noise. A general expression for the Cramer Rao Bound (CRB) of the estimates is...
