How to calculate wavelet energy?

4.3k Views Asked by At

Part of my assignment about signal processing says the following:

  • Compute the Discrete Wavelet Transform for the input signals
  • Group the wavelet coefficients in trees growing across scales
  • Classify the trees in high- and low-energy trees

I've managed to implement my own DWT, calculate the coefficients and group them in trees.

Now I'm left with calculating the energy of the wavelet coefficients.

Question: How to calculate the energy of wavelet coefficients?

I am doing this in Matlab.
