    Syntax

    y = lwtcoef(ca,cd)
    y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,Name,Value)

    Description

    y = lwtcoef(ca,cd) returns the level 1 approximation coefficients that correspond to the approximation and detail coefficients, ca and cd, respectively. ca and cd are outputs of lwt.

    y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,Name,Value) specifies options using one or more name-value arguments. For example, y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'OutputType','coefficients') specifies coefficients output.

    Load a 1-D signal of length 2048. Plot the signal.

    load wecg
plot(wecg)
title('Signal')
ylabel('Amplitude')
axis tight

    Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with title Signal, ylabel Amplitude contains an object of type line.

    Create a lifting scheme associated with the db4 wavelet. Use the lifting scheme to obtain the wavelet decomposition of the signal to the maximum level. Confirm the length of the detail coefficients cell array equals floor(log2(N)), where N is the length of the signal. 

    wv = 'db4';
lsc = liftingScheme('Wavelet',wv);
[ca,cd] = lwt(wecg,'LiftingScheme',lsc);
[length(cd) floor(log2(length(wecg)))]
    ans = 1×2

    Extract and plot the approximation coefficients at level 3. Confirm the length of the extraction is one-eighth the length of the original signal.

    approxCf = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'LiftingScheme',lsc, ...
    'OutputType','coefficients', ...
    'Level',3);
[2048/(2^3) length(approxCf)]
    ans = 1×2

    Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with title Level 3 Approximation Coefficients, ylabel Amplitude contains an object of type line.

    Obtain the orthogonal projection of the level 3 approximation coefficients. Also obtain the orthogonal projections of the detail coefficients at levels 1, 2, and 3. Plot the results.

    approx3 = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'LiftingScheme',lsc, ...

    Figure contains 4 axes objects. Axes object 1 with title Projection - Approximation contains an object of type line. Axes object 2 with title Projection - Level 3 Details contains an object of type line. Axes object 3 with title Projection - Level 2 Details contains an object of type line. Axes object 4 with title Projection - Level 1 Details contains an object of type line.

    Confirm the sum of the four projections equals the original signal.

    Input Arguments

    collapse all

    Approximation (lowpass) coefficients at the coarsest level, specified as a scalar, vector, or matrix. The coefficients are the output of lwt.

    Data Types: single | double
    Complex Number Support: Yes

    Detail coefficients, specified as an L-by-1 cell array, where L is the level of the transform. The elements of cd are in order of decreasing resolution. The coefficients are the output of lwt.

    Data Types: single | double
    Complex Number Support: Yes

    Name-Value Arguments

    collapse all

    Specify optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

    Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose Name in quotes.

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'LiftingScheme',lsc,'OutputType','coefficients','Level',2) uses the lifting scheme lsc to extract the approximation coefficients at level 2.

    Orthogonal or biorthogonal wavelet, specified as a character vector or string scalar. See the Wavelet property of liftingScheme for the list of supported wavelets. For perfect reconstruction, the specified wavelet must match the wavelet you used to generate ca and cd.

    You cannot specify 'Wavelet' and 'LiftingScheme' name-value arguments at the same time.

    Lifting scheme to use, specified as a liftingScheme object. For perfect reconstruction, the specified lifting scheme must match the lifting scheme you used to generate ca and cd.

    You cannot specify 'Wavelet' and 'LiftingScheme' name-value arguments at the same time.

    Output type, specified as one of:

    • 'coefficients' — Extract the approximation or details coefficients

    • 'projection' — Return the projection (reconstruction) of the approximation or details coefficients

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'OutputType','projection','Type','detail') returns the projection corresponding to the detail coefficients at the finest scale.

    Type of coefficients to extract or reconstruct, specified as 'approximation' or 'detail'.

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'Type','detail') extracts the detail coefficients at the finest scale.

    Level of coefficients to extract or reconstruct, specified as an integer in the range [1,N], where N is the length of cd.

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,'LiftingScheme',lsc,'Level',3) uses the lifting scheme lsc to extract the approximation coefficients at level 3.

    Data Types: double

    Handling integer-valued data, specified as one of these:

    • 1 (true) — Preserve integer-valued data

    • 0 (false) — Do not preserve integer-valued data

    Int2Int must match the value you used to generate ca and cd.

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,Int2Int=true) preserves integer-valued data.

    Extension mode to use to extract or reconstruct the coefficients, specified as one of these:

    • "periodic" — Periodized extension

    • "zeropad" — Zero padding

    • "symmetric" — Symmetric extension

    This argument specifies how to extend the signal at the boundaries. The extension mode must match the value you used to generate ca and cd.

    Example: y = lwtcoef(ca,cd,Extension="zeropad") specifies zero padding.

    Output Arguments

    collapse all

    Extracted coefficients or projection, returned as a vector or matrix. If ca is a scalar or vector, and the elements of cd are vectors, then y is a vector. If ca and the elements of cd are matrices, then y is a matrix, where each column is the extraction or projection of the corresponding columns in ca and cd.
