Shonting, David | Knox, Jeffrey R.
The invention relates generally to the field of electronic sensing devices, and more particularly to sensors for sensing selected conditions on an ocean surface. The invention specifically provides a sensor which may be deployed by a submarine or other submerged platform, which can obtain wave statistics regarding significant wave height, mean and 'rms' (root-mean-square) wave height, wave frequency spectra I information, variance, the significance and mean period and sea state, from which conditions such as surface wind speed can be determined.
