Wavelet-based representations for the 1/f family of fractal processes 论文

摘要

It is demonstrated that 1/f fractal processes are, in a broad sense, optimally represented in terms of orthonormal wavelet bases. Specifically, via a useful frequency-domain characterization for 1/f processes, the wavelet expansion's role as a Karhunen-Loeve-type expansion for 1/f processes is developed. As an illustration of potential, it is shown that wavelet-based representations naturally lead to highly efficient solutions to some fundamental detection and estimation problems involving 1/f processes.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
