Performance of wavelet-based shaping pulses on linear and nonlinear channels

The use of orthonormal scaling functions, wavelets and wavelet packets for modulation has been recently proposed. In this paper we study the performance of the Meyer, Daubechies, biorthogonal Spline, Battle-Lemarie, and modied Gaussian] families of wavelets, for modulation over linear and non-linear channels, and we propose the use of wavelets for modulation over FDM non-linear satellite channels and for multicarrier modulation on satellite and multipath channels
