Multiresolution analysis of a class of nonstationary processes

Hamid Krim, Jean‐Christophe Pesquet · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1995

Processing nonstationary signals is an important and challenging problem. We focus on the class of nonstationary processes with stationary increments of an arbitrary order, and place them in a multiscale framework. Unlike other related studies, we concentrate on the discrete-time analysis and derive a number of new results in addition to placing the related existing ones in the same framework. We extend the study to various parametric models for which we derive the resulting multiresolution description. We show that wide-sense stationarity may be achieved by adequately selecting the analysis wavelet. After generalizing the study to wavelet packet analysis, we show that the latter possesses additional properties which are useful in the presence of other types of nonstationarities.>
