12b)], we showed the following:

1.  All known analytic wavelet types can be subsumed into one much broader family.
2.  Within that family, one can objectively say which choice is the  &lsquo;best&rsquo; for general use.


The name of this broad  &lsquo;superfamily&rsquo; of wavelets is the *generalized Morse wavelets.*


The recommended choice within this wavelet family is that which maximizes frequency-domain symmetry.


The generalized Morse wavelets have a simple Fourier-domain form
