Here we derive sufficient conditions on the coefficients used in the scaling equation and wavelet scaling equation thatensure, for every k , that the sets φ k , n t n and ψ k , n t n have the orthonormality properties described in The Scaling Equation and The Wavelet Scaling Equation .

For φ k , n t n to be orthonormal at all k , we certainly need orthonormality when k 1 . This is equivalent to

δ m φ 1 , 0 t φ 1 , m t n h n φ t n h φ t 2 m n h n h φ t n φ t 2 m
where δ n 2 m φ t n φ t 2 m
δ m n h n h n 2 m

There is an interesting frequency-domain interpretation of the previous condition. If we define

p m h m h m n h n h n m
then we see that our condition is equivalent to p 2 m δ m . In the z -domain, this yields the pair of conditions

Power-symmetry property

P z H z H z -1
1 1 2 p 0 1 P z 1 2 2 2 p 1 2 P z 1 2 1 2 P z 1 2 Putting these together,
2 H z 1 2 H z 1 2 H z 1 2 H z 1 2
2 H z H z -1 H z H z -1 2 H ω 2 H ω 2 where the last property invokes the fact that h n and that real-valued impulse responses yield conjugate-symmetric DTFTs. Thus we find that h n are the impulse response coefficients of a power-symmetric filter. Recall that this property was alsoshared by the analysis filters in an orthogonal perfect-reconstruction FIR filterbank.

Given orthonormality at level k 0 , we have now derived a condition on h n which is necessary and sufficient for orthonormality at level k 1 . Yet the same condition is necessary and sufficient for orthonormality at level k 2 :

δ m φ 2 , 0 t φ 2 , m t n h n φ 1 , n t h φ 1 , + 2 m t n h n h φ 1 , n t φ 1 , + 2 m t n h n h n 2 m
where δ n 2 m φ 1 , n t φ 1 , + 2 m t . Using induction, we conclude that the previous condition will be necessary and sufficient for orthonormalityof φ k , n t n for all k .

To find conditions on g n ensuring that the set ψ k , n t n is orthonormal at every k , we can repeat the steps above but with g n replacing h n , ψ k , n t replacing φ k , n t , and the wavelet-scaling equation replacing the scaling equation. This yields

δ m n g n g n 2 m
2 G z G z -1 G z G z -1 Next derive a condition which guarantees that W k V k , as required by our definition W k V k , for all k . Note that, for any k , W k V k is guaranteed by ψ k , n t n φ k , n t n which is equivalent to
0 ψ k + 1 , 0 t φ k + 1 , m t n g n φ k , n t h φ k , + 2 m t n g n h φ k , n t φ k , + 2 m t n g n h n 2 m
for all m where δ n 2 m φ k , n t φ k , + 2 m t . In other words, a 2-downsampled version of g n h n must consist only of zeros. This necessary and sufficient condition can be restated in the frequency domainas
0 1 2 p 0 1 G z 1 2 2 2 p H z 1 2 2 2 p
0 G z 1 2 H z 1 2 G z 1 2 H z 1 2 0 G z H z -1 G z H z -1 The choice
odd P G z ± z P H z -1
satisfies our condition, since G z H z -1 G z H z -1 ± z P H z -1 H z -1 z P H z -1 H z -1 0 In the time domain, the condition on G z and H z can be expressed
odd P g n ± -1 n h P n .
Recall that this property was satisfied by the analysisfilters in an orthogonal perfect reconstruction FIR filterbank.

Note that the two conditions odd P G z ± z P H z -1 2 H z H z -1 H z H z -1 are sufficient to ensure that both φ k , n t n and ψ k , n t n are orthonormal for all k and that W k V k for all k , since they satisfy the condition 2 G z G z -1 G z G z -1 automatically.
