Symmetrical directional dual-tree complex wavelet packet transform

In this study, a symmetrical directional complex discrete wavelet packet transform, which can be applied directly to the quadrature format signals and has the ability of mapping directional information during decomposition stage, is proposed. With the proposed symmetrical directional complex wavelet packet transform, traditional symmetrical phasing filter technique, which is used for quadrature signal to directional signal conversion, is eliminated and the computational complexity of whole process is reduced. The performance of proposed method is examined in detail using real quadrature embolic signals.
