We study two classes of orthonormal bases for L2 ½0; 1 in this paper. The exponential parts of these bases are multi-knot piecewise linear functions. These bases are called spectral sequences. Characterizations of these multi-knot piecewise linear functions are provided. We also consider an opposite problem for single-knot piecewise linear spectral sequences, where the piecewise linear functions are defined on ½0; Þ and ½; 1. We show that such spectral sequences do not exist except for  ¼ 12. Keywords: spectral sequence, orthogonal basis, trigonometric basis AMS 2000 subject classification: 42C15

Introduction

The classical Fourier functions F :¼ fen : n 2 Zg; where Z denotes the integer set and en ðtÞ :¼ e2int ; t 2 I :¼ ½0; 1; forms an orthonormal basis for the space L2 ðIÞ. This basis plays an important role in many fields such as mathematics, engineering and physics. However, the Fourier basis

sometimes has serious limitations in many applications [5]. For example, they cannot reflect the instantaneous frequency of nonlinear and non-stationary signals (cf., [2, 3, 5]). In fact, in engineering, if a complex signal s has the form sðtÞ :¼ aðtÞe2iðtÞ ; t 2 I, then  is called the phase function and usually  is nonlinear. The frequency variation of s is assessed by instantaneous frequency (cf., [2, 3, 5]), which is defined by !ðtÞ ¼ dðtÞ dt ; t 2 I. Huang et al. [5] proposed an algorithm which is called empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to process nonlinear and non-stationary signals. This algorithm can decompose a signal into finite combinations of simple components. These simple components have two characteristics. One is that these components can be derived from signals adaptively; another is that these components can reflect the instantaneous frequency of signals after they are written in the form of aðÞe2iðÞ by using Hilbert transform (cf., [1, 9]). Actually, EMD proposed two questions in the signal analysis and functions decomposition. The first is the adaptiv
