SVG background repeat-x in IE

Question

I've tried to repeat a SVG horizontal as a background and it works fine in Chrome but not in IE. I tried multiple ways fixing it but nothing works. I tried

preserveAspectRatio="none slice"

as described here

SVG(part of):

<svg version="1.1" id="Ebene_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
 viewBox="0 0 1000 1000" style="enable-background:new 0 0 1000 1000;" xml:space="preserve">

CSS:

.wave {
background-image: url(../images/wave.svg);
height: 150px;
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: -150px;
background-repeat: repeat-x; }

HTML:

<div class="wave"></div>

you need to set also a background-size:

here you need:

.wave {
    background-image: url(http://ineedhelp.tk/svgrepeat/images/wave.svg);
    height: 150px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    margin-top: -150px;
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
  background-size:150px 150px;
    overflow:hidden
}

* {
    margin: auto;
    padding: 0;
}

body {
    background-color: white;
}

h1 {
    text-align: center;
    color: #212121;
    font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif;
    font-weight: 300;
    font-size: 40px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    letter-spacing: 2px;
    position: relative;
    top: 17vh;
    line-height: 1.2;
}

a {
    color: #212121;
    font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif;
    font-weight: 300;
    font-size: 30px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    letter-spacing: 2px;
    position: relative;
    line-height: 1.2;
    text-decoration: underline;
    text-align: center;
    margin: 0 auto;
    top: 10px;
}

h3 {
    text-align: center;
    color: #212121;
    font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif;
    font-weight: 300;
    font-size: 40px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    letter-spacing: 2px;
    position: relative;
    top: 17vh;
    line-height: 1.2;
}

.water {
    background-color: #E4F2EF;
    width: 100%;
    height: 40vh;
    bottom: 0;
    position: fixed;
}
