Introduction to Wavelets and Wavelet Transforms : A Primer. This item is unavailable.Introduction to Wavelets and Wavelet Transforms : A Primer

Advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, faculty, researchers and practitioners in signal processing, telecommunications, and computer science, and applied mathematics. It assumes a background of Fourier series and transforms and of linear algebra and matrix methods.

This primer presents a well balanced blend of the mathematical theory underlying wavelet techniques and a discussion that gives insight into why wavelets are successful in signal analysis, compression, dection, numerical analysis, and a wide variety of other theoretical and practical applications. It fills a gap in the existing wavelet literature with its unified view of expansions of signals into bases and frames, as well as the use of filter banks as descriptions and algorithms.

This book is the only source available that presents a unified view of the theory and applications of discrete and continuous- time signals. This is the only book to present the mathematical point of view, as well as the discrete-time signal processing perspective. It brings together information previously available only in research papers, in engineering and applied mathematics. Appropriate for researchers and practitioners in signal processing and applied mathematics.
