  • Abstract
    In this letter, we aim to identify the optimal isotropic mother wavelet for a given spatial dimension based on a localization criterion. Within the framework of the calculus of variations, we specify an Euler-Lagrange equation for this problem, and we find the unique analytic solutions. In the one- and two-dimensional cases, the derived wavelets are well known.
