Abstract

In this paper a preliminary study about the problem of forecasting the wave elevation some seconds ahead, at a particular point on the sea surface, basing on past observations at the same point, is presented. It is discussed how, in the eld of wave energy, short term wave forecasting plays a key role for energy extraction optimization. Some simple linear techniques from time series theory are analyzed and then tested both on linear simu- lated data and on real sea data. Along with these methodologies, a way to preprocess the data from a wave energy perspective, is proposed.
