Existing image wavelet transform techniques exceed the computational and memory resources of low-complexity wireless sensor nodes. In order to enable multimedia wireless sensors to use image wavelet transforms techniques to pre-process collected image sensor data, we introduce the fractional wavelet filter. The fractional wavelet filter computes the wavelet transform of a 256 × 256 grayscale image using only 16-bit fixed-point arithmetic on a micro-controller with less than 1.5 kbyte of RAM. We comprehensively evaluate the resource requirements (RAM, computational complexity, computing time) as well as image quality of the fractional wavelet filter. We find that the fractional wavelet transform computed with fixed-point arithmetic gives typically negligible degradations in image quality. We also find that combining the fractional wavelet filter with a customized wavelet-based image coding system achieves image compression competitive to the JPEG2000 standard.
