Abstract
The wavelet transform is a very common and useful tool for image processing and compression, however, it requires heavy computations. Optics is useful for rapid computation of parallel information channels. In this paper various important approaches for the optical implementation of 2D wavelet transform as well as the optical wavelet processor are presented and discussed.
