signal analysis - weighted sum of basis functions
|
Infinitely many possible sets of wavelets
|
coefficients contain information about the signal
|
basis functions
-
impulse function reveals information only about the time domain behavior of the signal
-
Fourier representation reveals information about signal's frequency domain behavior
-
we want to have representation which contains info about both the time and frequency (frequency content of the signal at the particular instant of time)
|
Heisenberg inequality - resolution in time and in frequency cannot both be made arbitrarily small
