qbiorthfilt

First-level dual-tree biorthogonal filters

Since R2020a

Description

example

[LoD,HiD,LoR,HiR] = qbiorthfilt(name) returns the first-level biorthogonal filters for Kingsbury's Q-shift complex dual-tree transform specified by name.

Examples

collapse all

Obtain the decomposition and reconstruction filters associated with the biorthogonal wavelet nearsym5_7.

fname = 'nearsym5_7';
[LoD,HiD,LoR,HiR] = qbiorthfilt(fname);

Use the dwtfilterbank function to create a 7-level discrete wavelet transform filter bank with the biorthogonal filters. Specify the wavelet filter type as analysis. Because the filters are not of even lengths, extend the filters appropriately to match powers of their z-transforms.

scal(:,1) = [0 0 LoD' 0];
scal(:,2) = [0 LoR'];
wavf(:,1) = [0 HiD'];
wavf(:,2) = [0 0 HiR' 0];
fb = dwtfilterbank('Wavelet','Custom',...
    'CustomScalingFilter',scal,...
    'CustomWaveletFilter',wavf,...
    'Level',7,...
    'FilterType','analysis');

Obtain the time-domain wavelets corresponding to the wavelet passband filters. Plot the coarsest-scale wavelet.

[psi,t] = wavelets(fb);
plot(t,psi(end,:))
grid on
xlabel('Time')
ylabel('Amplitude')

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel Time, ylabel Amplitude contains an object of type line.

Input Arguments
