Some results on two-dimensional pseudoquadrature mirror filters

Ali J. Tabatabai · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems · 1987

One-dimensional (1-D) pseudoquadrature mirror filters (PQMF's) have been introduced as a generalization of quadrature mirror, filter (QMF) concepts. Use of such filters allows one to split directly the spectrum of an input signal intoNequally spaced subbands which can be decimated byN: 1, then interpolated and recombined to reproduce the original signal. In this paper, a detailed derivation of conditions specifying 2-D PQMF design constraints for a distortion-free (i.e., aliasing and amplitude distortions) reconstruction of the original signal are obtained. Potential applications for such filters include efficient subband coding of digital pictures.
