title: Generalized symmetric extension for size-limited multirate filter banks.
abstract: A multirate (MR) filter bank is called size-limited if the total number of output samples equals the number of input samples. A method called symmetric extension improved performance in subband image compression systems compared to the earlier method of circular convolution. However, the symmetric extension method was developed only for two-band uniform filter banks, and required even-length linear phase analysis filters. The authors generalize the symmetric extension method to the M-band, possibly nonuniform filter banks, where M=/>2. The length restriction on the analysis filters is relaxed.
