Wavelet and subband transforms have been of great interest in
the fields of engineering and applied mathematics. The theories of
these powerful signal-processing tools have matured and many
applications utilizing them are emerging in different disciplines.
This book, comprising eleven chapter contributions from prominent
researchers in the field, focuses on communications and multimedia
applications of wavelet and subband transforms. The first six chapters of this book deal with a variety of
communications applications that significantly benefit from wavelet
and subband theories. Similarly, the remaining five chapters present
recent advances in multimedia applications of wavelet and subband
transforms. These chapters interconnect the requirements of
applications with the underlying theory and their engineering
solutions. Hence, the reader can easily trace the entire path from
fundamentals to the purpose and merit of the application in hand. A
combined list of references for the entire volume is given at the end
of the text that should be helpful to the interested reader for
further study. Wavelet, Subband and Block Transforms in Communications and
Multimedia will be of particular interest to engineers and
scientists who want to learn about state-of-the-art subband and
wavelet transform applications as well as their theoretical
underpinnings. It can also serve as a supplementary book for
graduate-level engineering and applied mathematics courses on wavelet
and subband transforms.
