General wavelet packets

We'll use the notation and terminology of [2], whose results we shall assume.

We are given an exact quadrature mirror filter satisfying the conditions of Theorem (3.6) in [2], p. 964, i.e.

We let and define the operations on into ``''

The map is orthogonal and

We now define the following sequence of functions.

Clearly the function can be identified with the function in [D] and with the function .

Let us define and

All of the functions have a fixed scale, but we observe that mixed-scale decompositions of are also possible. This allows us to refine the decomposition by scales as embodied in the following:
