Abstract
New extremal properties of Daubechies 4-tap orthonormal filters are given: they maximize a certain functional, have the largest gain in (0,π / 2), and allow maximum energy compaction in [0,π / 2]. These properties do not carry over to Daubechies filters of arbitrary length. They complement what is known about Daubechies filters and highlight the specific role of the 4-tap filter. Moreover, we demonstrate that these properties cannot be fulfilled by any other orthonormal lowpass filter, regardless of its length.
