This book provides engineers, scientists, and students with a practical understanding of wavelet transforms and their properties. The authors introduce the underlying theory of the transform by presenting a wide range of applications, which are drawn from the fields of signal processing, image processing, and communications. It identifies problems for which wavelet transform techniques are well-suited, shows how to implement wavelet transforms efficiently, and explains how to choose or design appropriate wavelets for a given application. The authors present the material in a visual and comprehensive manner, using geometric analogies and filtering concepts. The book is written in a language familiar to readers with a basic undergraduate engineering degree.

Companion Software: The authors have developed a set of MATLAB M-files that are available on a diskette bound into the book. These files require MATLAB, the Image Processing Toolbox, and the Signal Processing Toolbox.
