The invention discloses a
buoy type wave
observation method and device based on a GNSS and an
accelerometer, and relates to the technical field of marine environment monitoring, and the method comprises the steps: collecting positioning data and
inertial motion data, constructing a reference acceleration through the positioning data, carrying out the dynamic real-
time zero offset compensation of the acceleration, correcting the attitude of a
buoy according to the
angular velocity information, and carrying out the real-
time zero offset compensation of the acceleration.
Wave motion parameters are calculated by using a multi-order spectral moment, a horizontal velocity component is extracted, the main wave direction of
waves is estimated through a maximum entropy spectrum method, and the main wave direction and the
wave motion parameters are jointly packaged and transmitted through a dual-mode
communication link. Through multi-
source synchronous acquisition, GNSS dynamic zero offset compensation, attitude correction, wave direction calculation and parameter inversion, the problem of low accuracy and reliability of
observation data caused by long-term drifting of the wave observation
buoy is cooperatively solved, and meanwhile, the maintenance difficulty and cost of the
wave buoy are reduced. A core
algorithm is realized through an edge
processing architecture, so that the cost of a single buoy is greatly reduced, and possibility is provided for large-scale high-density networking.
