Abstract

This paper describes symmetric convolution and its use for the nonexpansive implementation of multirate filter banks for images. Symmetric convolution is a formalized approach to convolving symmetric FIR filters with symmetrically extended data. It is efficient because the discrete sine and cosine transforms (DST & DCT) can be used to perform the convolution as a transform-domain multiplication. This paper explains how to use symmetric convolution to implement a multiband filter bank for finite-length data that restricts the number of samples in the subbands but still gives perfect reconstruction.
