Extraction of the significant wave height from synthetic HF radar data acquired on a floating platform
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The usual procedure for extracting ocean surface information from data acquired from a high‐frequency surface wave radar transmitting from a floating platform is to first compensate for the motion of the antenna in the acquired motion‐contaminated Doppler spectrum and then extract the ocean wave parameters from the motion‐compensated result. The authors propose a new real‐time method to estimate the significant wave height directly from the antenna's received electric field in the time‐domain without requiring prior knowledge of the motion parameters or performing motion compensation. Based on the relation between the ocean surface displacement and the received electric field, this method calculates the significant wave height from the windowed variance of the upper envelope of the received electric field. A preliminary calibration is required, which can be carried out either by the deployment of a wave buoy or by analysing the data over a time period during which the sea state varies. The results from this simple proposed technique show that it may be used to estimate the significant wave height with a root‐mean‐square error (RMSE) between 10 and 14 cm over a wide range of significant wave height values.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
