Program code:

%DEMO_WAVELETFILTERS  Invertible wavelet filter banks via grid-like sampling
%
%   This demo shows how to generate invertible wavelet filter 
%   banks.
%
%   The following wavelet filter banks are produced:
%
%
%   Figure 1: Non-uniformly sampled wavelet filter bank
%
%      The figure shows a non-uniformly sampled invertible filter bank with 
%      conventional, geometric frequency spacing.
%
%
%   Figure 2: Non-uniformly sampled wavelet filter bank
%
%      The figure shows a non-uniformly sampled invertible filter bank with 
%      geometric frequency spacing, a higher redundancy and using
%      a wavelet with different Q-factor.
%
%
%   Figure 3: Uniformly sampled wavelet filter bank
%
%      The figure shows a uniformly sampled invertible filter bank with geometric 
%      frequency spacing, where the scales are passed directly as input
%      arguments.
%
%
%   Figure 4: Uniformly sampled wavelet filter bank
%
%      The figure shows a uniformly sampled invertible filter bank with linear 
%      frequency spacing where the compensation channel index is passed directly.
%      invertibility is achieved by passing a small delay to the filter
%      generator.
%
%
%   Figure 5: The figure shows a comparison of the filter center frequency spacing.

% via `waveletfilters` exhibit the constant-Q property, and for Cauchy wavelets,
% the alpha parameter has a correspondence to its Q-factor, allowing for a 
% relatively intuitive parametrization. The properties of the wavelet used
% can be retrieved from the |freqwavelet| function.
 
% Approximate the Q-factor of the wavelet used in filter bank 1.

%% filter bank 3: invertible filter bank, specified via wavelet scales

% Besides the specification based on frequency range as above,
% `waveletfilters` allows for passing the scales directly. Scale values 
% greater than 1 make the wavelet wider in time, values lower than 1 make
% the wavelet narrower.
% Since in LTFAT, the normalized sampling frequency is fs = 2 per default, 
% and in |freqwavelet|, wavelets are specified such that their center frequency
% fc = 0.1/scale, the (default) Nyquist frequency of `waveletfilters` 
% is fn = fs_intern/2 with fs_intern = 2 * 1/0.1 = 20 Hz.
fs_intern = 20;

% Similarly, `waveletfilters` does not allow for wavelet center frequencies
% fc that exceed LTFAT's Nyquist frequency fn, hence the smallest possible 
% scale = 0.1/fn = 0.1.
scale_min = log2(0.1);

% The maximum scale can be directly derived from fmin.
fmin_intern = fmin*fs_intern/fs;
scale_max = log2(1/fmin_intern);

% The largest scale accepted by waveletfilters is subject to numerical 
% limitations. The bandwidth of wavelets at low frequencies may become too
% narrow to capture sufficient signal energy. Hence, `waveletfilters`
% per default adds a lowpass channel to the filter bank. See `help
% waveletfilters` for further options.
% To construct a filter bank with the same number of channels as before,
% that additional lowpass filter needs to be taken into account.
channels = numel(fc_fb1) - 1;
scales = 2.^linspace(scale_max,scale_min,channels);

% To ensure invertibility, for uniformly sampled filter banks, a sufficiently 
% high redundancy is advantageous. Note that, similar to the redundancy
% multiplier in fb 2, this is applied before(!) downsampling rates are adapted 
% to the chosen decimation scheme. If the decimation scheme is not 'fractional',
% the final redundancy may differ (usually by being higher). 
redundancy = 64;

% The 'energy' flag is used to scale each filter such that its energy is
% *1*. For further scaling options, see the help of the function |setnorm|.

%% filter bank 4: invertible filter bank with linear frequency spacing

% An invertible wavelet filter bank with linear frequency spacing can be 
% constructed by adding a small delay to each wavelet sampling point. Here, 
% the delay is generated from a Kronecker low discrepancy sequence and passed 
% to waveletfilters as an anonymous function. For details, see
% ltfatnote057.

% Specifying a new sampling frequency and redundancy
fs = 2;
redundancy = 4;

% Besides the default addition of a lowpass filter at the bottom of the
% filter bank mentioned above (see filter bank 3), it is also possible to
% specify the 'repeat' application of frequency shifted copies of the
% lowest-frequency wavelet. This can further improve the frame bounds at
% the loss of the constant-Q property in the lower frequency range of the
% filter bank. Here, 8 lowpass (compensation) channels are used.
