Complex Wavelets

Some complex wavelet families are available in the toolbox.

Complex Gaussian Wavelets: cgau

This family is built starting from the complex Gaussian function:

by taking the derivative of . The integer is the parameter of this family and in the previous formula, is such that:

where is the derivative of f.

You can obtain a survey of the main properties of this family by typing waveinfo('cgau') from the MATLAB command line.

Complex Morlet Wavelets: cmor

See [Teo98] pages 62-65.

A complex Morlet wavelet is defined by:

depending on two parameters:

is a bandwidth parameter.

is a wavelet center frequency.

You can obtain a survey of the main properties of this family by typing waveinfo('cmor') from the MATLAB command line.

Complex Frequency B-Spline Wavelets: fbsp

See [Teo98] pages 62-65.

A complex Frequency B-Spline wavelet is defined by:

depending on three parameters:

is an integer order parameter ().

is a bandwidth parameter.

is a wavelet center frequency.

You can obtain a survey of the main properties of this family by typing waveinfo('fbsp') from the MATLAB command line.

Complex Shannon Wavelets: shan

See [Teo98] pages 62-65.

This family is obtained from the frequency B-spline wavelets by setting m to 1.

A complex Shannon wavelet is defined by:

depending on two parameters:

is a bandwidth parameter.

is a wavelet center frequency.

You can obtain a survey of the main properties of this family by typing waveinfo('shan') from the MATLAB command line.
