The ship complex of optical devices for remote sensing of sea surface waves for wide diapason of
wavelength from centimeters to long energy surface waves was created. The short waves are analyzed by
the optical spectrumanalyzer and kinematics parameters of long waves are determined from optical RTI
images (range-time-intensity) of sea surface. The theory of formation of optical RTI images created from
optical profiles of sea surface is developed and method for formation of RTI images permitted to remove
influence of ships roll is proposed. The original device for recoding of RTI images using the linear array
of CCD-photodiodes is created. The preliminary results of sea surface waves investigations with optical
devices for wide diapason of wavelength and new data about twodimentional spectra of sea waves are
presented.
Keywords: optics of ocean, sea waves, spectral analysis, image processing, remote sensing
