Wave reflection is one of the key problems affecting wave simulation quality in ocean engineering basin.
The deep ocean engineering basin is equipped with two-sided segmented wavemakers and two wave absorbing
beaches, which are located opposite to wave generators to reduce wave reflection effects. When an oblique longcrested
wave is made by two-sided segmented wavemakers in a wave basin, two bi-directional reflected waves with
the same azimuth but opposite propagation directions are generated. According to this feature, based on the
two-point approach developed by Goda, a method to separate an incident regular wave from two bi-directional
reflected waves using three wave gauges is proposed. The validity of this method is proved by numerical composite
waves. The results indicate that the method can separate incident wave from reflected waves effectively. The
method can be used to determine the reflection coefficient and verify the capacity of wave absorbing beaches in
deep ocean engineering basin.
