Abstract

In this paper we study symmetric orthogonal filters with linear-phase moments, which are of interest in wavelet analysis and its applications. We investigate relations and connections among the linear-phase moments, sum rules, and symmetry of an orthogonal filter. As one of the results, we show that if a real-valued orthogonal filter a is symmetric about a point, then a has sum rules of order m if and only if it has linear-phase moments of order 2m. These connections among the linear-phase moments, sum rules, and symmetry help us to reduce the computational complexity of constructing symmetric real-valued orthogonal filters, and to understand better symmetric complex-valued orthogonal filters with linear-phase moments. To illustrate the results in the paper, we provide many examples of univariate symmetric orthogonal filters with linear-phase moments. In particular, we obtain an example of symmetric real-valued 4-orthogonal filters whose associated orthogonal 4-refinable function lies in C^2(R).
