This letter proposes an empirical wavelet transform (EWT)-based method to analyze significant wave heights ( $H_{s}$ ) from X-band marine radar images. First, each azimuth of the selected radar subimage is decomposed by the EWT into different numbers of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then, the information entropy is used to filter the amplitude modulation (AM) portions extracted from the IMFs. Finally, a linear fitting method is established by the average of the filtered AM in range and azimuth, respectively. The testing data are collected from shore-based radar and wave buoy in Pingtan, Fujian, China. The experimental results show that the proposed $H_{s}$ analysis method is improved compared with the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)-based method and the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD)-based method. The root mean square error (RMSE) is decreased by 0.25 and 0.10 m, respectively. Furthermore, the correlation coefficient is increased by 0.23 and 0.06, respectively.
