Abstract:
A wind turbine which is configured to be disposed in or above a sea floor is provided. The wind turbine includes a tower configured to protrude from a sea level and having a transmitter configured to transmit an electromagnetic wave to be reflected on the sea level and a receiver configured to receive the reflected electromagnetic wave, wherein at least one of the transmitter and the receiver includes a leaky feeder; and a processing unit being in communication with the receiver and configured to analyse the reflected electromagnetic wave such that a wave characteristic of the sea level is determined.
