The fully nonlinear problem on unsteady two-dimensional water waves generated by elliptic cylinder, that is horizontally submerged beneath a free surface, is considered. An analytical boundary integral equations method using a version of Milne-Thomson transformation is developed. Boundary equations (the BEq system) determine immediately exact wave elevation and fluid velocity at free surface. Small-time solution expansion is obtained in the case of accelerated cylinder starting from rest.
