Abstract
Wind energy is viewed as a promising new energy resource in its pure, clean, and inexhaustible nature. Because of less disturbed, stable and strong wind conditions, coastal areas are considered to be suitable for constructing wind energy systems. Moreover, it is said that offshore wind conditions are better than inshore wind conditions for power generation. However, actual measured reports of offshore wind are very few. This report describes the applicability of laser radar system to offshore wind measurement
