This document summarizes a student project on implementing lossless discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and inverse discrete wavelet transform (IDWT). It provides an overview of the project, which includes introducing DWT, reviewing literature on lifting schemes for faster DWT computation, and simulating a 2D (5,3) DWT. The results show DWT blocks decomposing signals into high and low pass coefficients. Applications mentioned are in medical imaging, signal denoising, data compression and image processing. The conclusion discusses the need for lossless transforms in medical imaging. Future work could extend this to higher level transforms and applications like compression and watermarking.

3. Introduction
Why Discrete wavelet transform?
Inherent multi-resolution nature,
wavelet-coding schemes
for applications where scalability and tolerable
degradation are important.
4. What is wavelets?
• Wavelet transform decomposes a signal into a
set of basis functions. These basis functions
are called wavelets
What is Discrete wavelet transform?
• Discrete wavelet transform (DWT), which
transforms a discrete time signal to a discrete
wavelet representation.
5. Introduction (cont..)
There are two types of compressions
1.Lossless
Digitally identical to the original image.
Only achieve a modest amount of
compression
2.Lossy
Discards components of the signal that are
known to be redundant. Signal is therefore
changed from input
7. Literature Review
• Lifting scheme of DWT has been recognized as a faster approach
• The basic principle is to factorize the poly-phase matrix of a wavelet filter
into a sequence of alternating upper and lower triangular matrices and a
diagonal matrix .

14. Applications of the project
• Medical application
• Signal de-noising
• Data compression
• Image processing
15. Conclusion
• Basically the medical images need more accuracy
without loss of information. The Discrete Wavelet
Transform (DWT) was based on time-scale
representation, which provides efficient multi-
resolution.
• It has been analyzed that the discrete wavelet
transform (DWT) operates at a maximum clock
frequency of 99.197 MHz respectively.
16. Future scope of the Work
As future work,
• This work can be extended in order to increase
the accuracy by increasing the level of
transformations.
• This can be used as a part of the block in the
full fledged application, i.e., by using these
DWT, the applications can be developed such
as compression, watermarking, etc.
