## Parameterization of the scaling coefficients

The case where $\phi \left(t\right)$ and $h\left(n\right)$ have compact support is very important. It aids in the time localization properties of the DWT andoften reduces the computational requirements of calculating the DWT. If $h\left(n\right)$ has compact support, then the filters described in  Chapter: Filter Banks and the Discrete Wavelet Transform are simple FIR filters. We have stated that $N$ , the length of the sequence $h\left(n\right)$ , must be even and $h\left(n\right)$ must satisfy the linear constraint of [link] and the $\frac{N}{2}$ bilinear constraints of [link] . This leaves $\frac{N}{2}-1$ degrees of freedom in choosing $h\left(n\right)$ that will still guarantee the existence of $\phi \left(t\right)$ and a set of essentially orthogonal basis functions generated from $\phi \left(t\right)$ .

## Length-2 scaling coefficient vector

For a length-2 $h\left(n\right)$ , there are no degrees of freedom left after satisfying the required conditions in [link] and [link] . These requirements are

$h\left(0\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}+\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(1\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\sqrt{2}$

and

${h}^{2}\left(0\right)+{h}^{2}\left(1\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}1$

which are uniquely satisfied by

${h}_{D2}\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}\left\{h,\left(,0,\right),,,h,\left(,1,\right)\right\}\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}\left\{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}},\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},,,\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right\}.$

These are the Haar scaling functions coefficients which are also the length-2 Daubechies coefficients [link] used as an example in Chapter: A multiresolution formulation of Wavelet Systems and discussed later in this book.

## Length-4 scaling coefficient vector

For the length-4 coefficient sequence, there is one degree of freedom or one parameter that gives all the coefficients that satisfy the requiredconditions:

$h\left(0\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}+h\left(1\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}+h\left(2\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}+h\left(3\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\sqrt{2},$
${h}^{2}\left(0\right)+{h}^{2}\left(1\right)+{h}^{2}\left(2\right)+{h}^{2}\left(3\right)=1$

and

$h\left(0\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(2\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}+\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(1\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(3\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}0$

Letting the parameter be the angle $\alpha$ , the coefficients become

$\begin{array}{cc}h\left(0\right)=\hfill & \left(1-cos\left(\alpha \right)+sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(1\right)=\hfill & \left(1+cos\left(\alpha \right)+sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(2\right)=\hfill & \left(1+cos\left(\alpha \right)-sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(3\right)=\hfill & \left(1-cos\left(\alpha \right)-sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right).\hfill \end{array}$

These equations also give the length-2 Haar coefficients [link] for $\alpha =0,\pi /2,3\pi /2$ and a degenerate condition for $\alpha =\pi$ . We get the Daubechies coefficients (discussed later in this book) for $\alpha =\pi /3$ . These Daubechies-4 coefficients have a particularly clean form,

${h}_{D4}=\left\{\frac{1+\sqrt{3}}{4\sqrt{2}},\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},,,\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},\frac{3+\sqrt{3}}{4\sqrt{2}},\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},,,\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},\frac{3-\sqrt{3}}{4\sqrt{2}},\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},,,\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}},\frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{4\sqrt{2}}\right\}$

## Length-6 scaling coefficient vector

For a length-6 coefficient sequence $h\left(n\right)$ , the two parameters are defined as $\alpha$ and $\beta$ and the resulting coefficients are

$\begin{array}{cc}h\left(0\right)=\hfill & \left[\left(1+cos\left(\alpha \right)+sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)\left(1-cos\left(\beta \right)-sin\left(\beta \right)\right)+2sin\left(\beta \right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}cos\left(\alpha \right)\right]/\left(4\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(1\right)=\hfill & \left[\left(1-cos\left(\alpha \right)+sin\left(\alpha \right)\right)\left(1+cos\left(\beta \right)-sin\left(\beta \right)\right)-2sin\left(\beta \right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}cos\left(\alpha \right)\right]/\left(4\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(2\right)=\hfill & \left[1+cos\left(\alpha -\beta \right)+sin\left(\alpha -\beta \right)\right]/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(3\right)=\hfill & \left[1+cos\left(\alpha -\beta \right)-sin\left(\alpha -\beta \right)\right]/\left(2\sqrt{2}\right)\hfill \\ h\left(4\right)=\hfill & 1/\sqrt{2}-h\left(0\right)-h\left(2\right)\hfill \\ h\left(5\right)=\hfill & 1/\sqrt{2}-h\left(1\right)-h\left(3\right)\hfill \end{array}$

Here the Haar coefficients are generated for any $\alpha =\beta$ and the length-4 coefficients [link] result if $\beta =0$ with $\alpha$ being the free parameter. The length-4 Daubechies coefficients are calculatedfor $\alpha =\pi /3$ and $\beta =0$ . The length-6 Daubechies coefficients result from $\alpha =1.35980373244182\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}\text{and}\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}\beta =-0.78210638474440$ .

The inverse of these formulas which will give $\alpha$ and $\beta$ from the allowed $h\left(n\right)$ are

$\alpha =arctan\left(\frac{2\left(h{\left(0\right)}^{2}+h{\left(1\right)}^{2}\right)-1+\left(h\left(2\right)+h\left(3\right)\right)/\sqrt{2}}{2\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\left(h\left(1\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(2\right)-h\left(0\right)\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}h\left(3\right)\right)+\sqrt{2}\left(h\left(0\right)-h\left(1\right)\right)}\right)$
$\beta =\alpha -arctan\left(\frac{h\left(2\right)-h\left(3\right)}{h\left(2\right)+h\left(3\right)-1/\sqrt{2}}\right)$

As $\alpha$ and $\beta$ range over $-\pi$ to $\pi$ all possible $h\left(n\right)$ are generated. This allows informative experimentation to better see whatthese compactly supported wavelets look like. This parameterization is implemented in the Matlab programs in Appendix C and in the Aware, Inc. software, UltraWave [link] .

Since the scaling functions and wavelets are used with integer translations, the location of their support is not important, only thesize of the support. Some authors shift $h\left(n\right)$ , ${h}_{1}\left(n\right)$ , $\phi \left(t\right)$ , and $\psi \left(t\right)$ to be approximately centered around the origin. This is achieved by having the initial nonzero scaling coefficient start at $n=-\frac{N}{2}+1$ rather than zero. We prefer to have the origin at $n=t=0$ .

what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.

so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.
