Multiscale analysis of potential fields by Generalized Continuous Wavelet Transform
نویسنده
چکیده
The multiscale analysis of potential fields is a valid tool to study the source properties. Among multiscale methods, the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) is well established due to its natural filtering properties. From the beginning the choice of the analyzing wavelet has been the set belonging to the Poisson kernel: within this framework the CWT can be easily performed by upward continuing the k horizontal derivative of the field, some constant apart. We here use a recent development of CWT, called Generalized Continuous Wavelet Transform (GCWT) allowing any wavelet to be used (Fedi and Cascone, 2008) and apply it to the study of the magnetic field due to salt domes.

Wavelet analyses and applications
Abstract It is shown how a modern extension of Fourier analysis known as wavelet analysis is applied to signals containing multiscale information. First, a continuous wavelet transform is used to analyse the spectrum of a nonstationary signal (one whose form changes in time). The spectral analysis of such a signal gives the strength of the signal in each frequency as a function of time. Next, t...

In this paper, formulas relating the Radon transform and Radon transform inversion to various wavelet and multiscale transformations, including the continuous wavelet transform, the semi{continuous wavelet transform of Mallat, steerable multiscale lters of Freeman and Adelson, and separable orthogonal and non{orthogonal wavelet bases, are given. The use of wavelets as a valuable tool in the loc...
متن کاملAnalysis of potential field data in the wavelet domain
Various Green’s functions occurring in Poisson potential field theory can be used to construct non-orthogonal, non-compact, continuous wavelets. Such a construction leads to relations between the horizontal derivatives of geophysical field measurements at all heights, and the wavelet transform of the zero height field. The resulting theory lends itself to a number of different applications in t...
متن کاملMultiscale theory of turbulence in wavelet representation
We present a multiscale description of hydrodynamic turbulence in incompressible fluid based on a continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and a stochastic hydrodynamics formalism. Defining the stirring random force by the correlation function of its wavelet components, we achieve the cancellation of loop divergences in the stochastic perturbation expansion. An extra contribution to the energy transf...
متن کامل2 Hydrodynamics of incompressible fluid in wavelet representation
We present multiscale description of hydrodynamic turbulence in incompressible fluid based on continuous wavelet transform. The wavelet transform of the velocity field is taken in L 1 norm, so that the wavelet coefficients u l (x) have the meaning of the velocity fluctuations of scale l. An extra contribution to the energy transfer from large to smaller scales is derived. It is shown that the K...
