Abstract In this paper we present a comparative simulation study of three denoising algorithms using wavelets. The denoising algorithms (i.e., universal threshold, minimax threshold and rigorous SURE threshold) have been used to remove white Gaussian noise from synthetic and real signals. The analysis is done by applying soft and hard thresholds to signals with different sample sizes. The mean squared error (MSE) is used to evaluate the performance of these algorithms. The results show that the rigorous SURE algorithm with a hard threshold has a better performance than other algorithms in synthetic signals. On the other hand, the universal threshold algorithm with a soft threshold shows the best performance in real signals when using the Daubechies wavelet with 5 vanishing moments.
1. Introduction It is well known that due to traffic information signals present a noise problem that complicates the transmission and reception of data. The analysis of noise and its elimination requires special mathematical tools. Since any undesirable electrical noise falls within the passband of the signal [1], the Fourier transform is the most common tool to perform this analysis. The main source of noise is the thermal noise because it is random and continuous, and occurs at all frequencies. Its power spectral density is flat, hence, it is also called "white noise" [1]. In order to eliminate this noise different denoising algorithms have been proposed (see e.g., [2][9]). In this paper we present a comparative simulation study of three wavelet based denoising algorithms applied to synthetic and real signals. The analysis is done by applying soft and hard thresholds to signals with different sample sizes. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. A review of wavelet theory is
presented in Section 2. Section 3 presents a description of three wavelet based denoising algorithms. Simulation results are reported in Section 4. Finally, Section 5 summarizes the conclusions drawn from previous sections.
2. A review of wavelet theory Wavelet transforms involve representing a general function in terms of simple, fixed building blocks at different scales and positions. These building blocks are generated from a single fixed function called mother wavelet by translation and dilation operations. The continuous wavelet transform considers a family [10]
