Wavelets technology provides sophisticated mathematical and statistical routines for analysing signals and very large data sets.
With the release of the new Wavelets Extension Pack for Mathcad, these techniques are available for the first time to mainstream engineers and scientists, technicians and statisticians as well as financial and economic analysts. Mathcad, the world's leading technical calculation software, is a desktop standard among these users, with an installed base of over one million worldwide.
The new Extension Pack adds over 60 wavelet functions, covering five orthogonal and biorthogonal families, to Mathcad's broad range of mathematical, statistical and data analysis routines.
Wavelet analysis allows users to view and explore details in data that other signal processing techniques may miss, destroy or lose, resulting in greater accuracy and higher clarity in their signal analysis.
The extended choice of transforms available in the Mathcad Wavelets Extension Pack provides advanced techniques for signal reconstruction, denoising, data compression and special numerical methods such as partial and ordinary differential equations and fast matrix manipulation.
All functions are seamlessly integrated into Mathcad's core environment for convenient application. Combined with Mathcad's patented interactive interface, the Mathcad Wavelets Extension Pack provides the ideal environment for users to experiment with different data sets, and quickly evaluate the quality of the solutions.
Applications include General signal processing - signal compression and reconstruction, time-frequency analysis and spectral analysis Speech and audio processing - speech compression, voice recognition, speaker verification and sound synthesis Image and video processing - image compression and reconstruction, pattern recognition and edge detection Mechanical and aerospace engineering - fluid dynamics and turbulence modelling Communications - wavelet packet pulses, discrete wavelet multitone modulation Computer science - computer graphics and machine vision Geophysics - seismic data processing Physics - wave propagation and acoustics Statistics - denoising, robust estimation, non-parametric regression and smoothing Finance and economics - multi-resolution time-series analysis "With the release of the Mathcad Wavelets Extension Pack, Mathcad users can access wavelet technology that can be easily integrated into their design and analysis work," said Paul Bragg, managing director of Adept Scientific who supply and support Mathcad in the UK.
"This extension pack brings wavelets out of the laboratory and into real world applications, delivering a powerful package for a relatively low investment." The Mathcad Wavelets Extension Pack integrates with Mathcad's other extension pack titles, including the popular Signal Processing and Image Processing Extension Packs.
This combination presents a complete library of functionality for any electrical engineer, particularly in the high growth area of DSP algorithm development.
The Mathcad Wavelets Extension Pack also includes an electronic book that offers extensive interactive resources on wavelet fundamentals, applications, examples and references.
