ABSTRACT:
An analog circuit implementing a continuous wavelet transform forms a multiplicity of analog wavelet outputs. These analog wavelet outputs can be used for data compression. This analog circuit is estimated to be about one-hundredth (1/100) the size and power of a digital wavelet transform circuit. Additionally, the analog wavelet outputs of the analog wavelet transform chip is directly determined without the loss of information due to the digital sampling.
